Schofield and Christine live in Aberdeen Scotland. He was 54 when he was diagnosed
on January 7, 2009. His initial PSA was 564.0 ng/ml, his Gleason Score was 9 and
he was staged T4. His choice of treatment was ADT (Androgen Deprivation Therapy)
- Zoladex. Here is his story.
Diagnosed earlier this year with metastasised
prostate cancer. Seen programme tonight after being informed through Cancer Charity.
Seem to be in the don't really know much stage. Still working but get
very tired sometimes and lose concentration. Just going on holiday tomorrow for
a break.
PSA level now down to 1.0 after getting injections.
Cheers
Richard

Early
2011 had PSA checked and now down to 0.2 and advised by Oncologist not required
to see him for 12 months unless any problems arise before them .
Still
living with a positive attitute to life. Hormones side effects are tiredness and
aching joints and the famous hot sweats .
