I'm off to have my annual PSA blood test in the next week and it should be, as usual, "undetectable" as I had my prostate removed 7 years ago.

Great to read that several of you are having a test done as early detection usually results in a good outcome.

Bugger, had the MRI scan sometime ago & hospital today for biopsy, bottom line it aint looking good. Still not 100% conclusive, but another three weeks waiting. I'm obviously still looking for the right noises, but this waiting is doing my head in.

From my experience, the waiting is the worst part. Once you know conclusively what you are or aren’t dealing with, you can get your head around it - until then, your mind fills in all the gaps and that’s horrible.

Thoughts are with you, Jim - all the very best

Aye! thanks chaps. It is the waiting. I took the the day off work & I'm at home alone. It's well documented how well this forum is at times like this. I've read many sad stories on here & it's a credit to everyone how we Coopsters stick together. Thanks for listening.

Jim, Having experienced what you are going through, I know how you feel, but I was given the sad news of a positive result as soon as the biopsy results came in (7 on the Gleeson Scale).

It is now 7 years since I had mine removed and all is still clear. Hope you eventually get the "all now OK" as I have. Just remember "Cancer is a word not a sentence".

Very best wishes from here, Jim.
Having discovered the meaning of "epididymal cyst" last week, I can empathise with the initial worry.
Keep us updated...

I got the all clear today chaps. I really would like to thank each & one of you personally & give you all a hug. Possum, I would like to thank you for sharing your story. All of you, for your kind words I've been in bits since my biopsy. Ridiculously coming home building myself up expecting a letter almost straight away from the NHS with news.

My lovely Doctor who was in a similar position last year phoned me & gave me the good news. I was driving at the time, obviously stopped & cried like a baby down the phone to him.He was very sympathetic & understanding, it was then when he told me about being in the same position last year.


Been off the wine/booze for ten weeks now, but tonight it's Champagne & steaks. Bloody hell I get so emotional at times. Once again thanks for listening. I could prattle on for ages but i'll do you all a favour & bugger off now.

Long live the Coop & it's owners.......Jim.

That’s such fabulous news, Jim. A shiver’s gone down my spine after having been through various versions of this. I’m delighted for you and yours. Celebrate hard ”place no faith in tomorrow”

Cracking result Jim, what a relief!

It'd be interesting to see how long it takes to fully register - took me a while!

Excellent news, Jim. Enjoy some of life's good things. Even if they aren't "good for you"!
