Crikey Hb - sounds like you’ve been through the ringer the last few weeks. Hope all the tests go well buddy and they get you back to full fitness. Sounds like good reason to be positive so far, so keep the chin up.
Took me six goes
Me thinks you're just jealous Kiwi.
That'll be my next profile image

Wishing you a speedy recovery Hammersmith. Looks like you are being well taken care of and the fact that you got to a phone and were able summons an ambulance in time was a blessing.
Despite what everyone says, the NHS will look after you as they are dedicated and genuinely caring people. We will keep you amused here and the Superhoops will continue their great form to keep you smiling. Wishing you all the best.
Just catching up lads......... take it easy as possible and take care of yourselves, need you all for the promotion party in May.........
Best wishes and a speedy recovery to all who are going through a tough time. Look forward to reading that things are on the up.
Alright chaps, you might not remember me but it’s your Putin loving (according to some), Farage admiring (according to others) cuddly Leftie here that made its my life’s ambition to spread the word……
As some of you might remember I was diagnosed with low level Prostate Cancer almost 10 years back and opted for active surveillance where they monitor my PSA level on a regular basis and throw in the odd MRI and CT scan as well.
Now two weeks ago I had the dreaded call that the Cancer had “progressed”, was now bulging from the capsule and had possibly become more aggressive. Cue the glory of the NHS (give ‘em a clap, eh ?) and I was booked in straight away for more CT scans (I’d started peeing blood) another MRI and yesterday I had another biopsy.
Options now are that it’s probably gonna be either Brachytherapy (maybe too late), Radiotherapy (sounds ****ing horrible) or Radical Prostectamy (sounds even ****ing worse). All treatable and all mean I’ll be able to hopefully live a normal life afterwards (still ain’t looking forward to a catheter for two weeks and tenna pants for a few months after.
The point of this post is that if I hadn’t had the PSA test all those years ago then the Cancer would have been there, with no symptoms, steadily growing and being missed….and if it metastasised and went some where else that would have been a whole lot of bad……
So to all you older fellas out there, get a PSA test for ****s sake…..it’s only an indication but could lead to an early diagnoses and a much better prognosis in the long term.
And to all you younger chaps…don’t think you’re immune. If you have a family history of CA, like I did….you too should get yourself checked out. My kids do “just in case”….better to be safe than sorry. I honestly ain’t looking for sympathy and I’m chilled (mostly) about it all but just something I feel passionate about.
Much love to you all, even my old scrapping foes…..hope all is well and good to see the Rangers where they belong. Might try and pop down one day if someone is willing to volunteer to change my bag.
Peace my bredrin x
Stainsey! Sorry, mate. Only just seen this thread. I had no idea you’d been diagnosed. Really sorry to hear that, but glad there are options for you. Some sexy pee-panties and an uncomfortable straw are probably a small price to pay under the circumstances, but getting older is a bitch, innit?
My late father had prostrate cancer for a good 20 years and was one of those dying with, rather than dying because of it.
Great advice for us all, mate. Women are much better at discussing health issues like breast or cervical cancer and us chaps need to remove the stigma surrounding our ailments too.
I had a PSA test and anal intruder examination in January this year. The funny thing was, the doctor was probing around up there for a good 3-5 minutes before I realised he had both hands on my shoulders…
And you still had a big grin on your face when you did realise
A treat is a treat, Steels. I can’t help having a gorgeous arse.

I know...wish you'd stop sending me the photos though
We all know you can’t get to see a real Dr these days Ubes.
Either you were fooled or you were back to your role-play games again
