In April this year (2019) I had a hormone injection,which unbeknown to me was unnecessary.
The day after the injection my appointment at the Macmillan Cancer Centre was due, so I went along to it.
While I was there they sent me for a further blood test, despite my having had the hormone injection, so I presumed it wouldn’t count. Any way it did and I’m very pleased to say that the PSA number which had been as high as 4.05 actually read <0.01 WOW!!
My wife and I were in tears when the letter came through about 3 weeks after the bloods were taken.
Since then, I’ve obviously had no more hormone injections but I have had another blood test – actually when I thought I might have had a water infection. Thankfully there was no infection but the GP had ordered a blood test which included the PSA test and again got the reading of <0.01 which is basically undetectable WOW!
