September 17th
During our follow-up appointment with Dr #1 Urologist, he informed us that as the result of the bone & CAT scans there was no sign of further spread of the prostate cancer.
He gave us answers to every question we could think of. We were pleased with his patience and feeling a little guilty that we had scheduled an appointment with Dr. #2 Urologist aka Dr. Jeff Saranchuk.
We were informed that the cancer rated 7 on the Gleason Scale which ranks it as intermediate, the most common grade of prostate cancer.
The only odd thing about the tests was that the bone scan showed some right ankle damage. That was all. Are you sure that's my bone scan analysis??? I broke my knee in a heli-skiing accident but I've never injured an ankle.
We have a slight remaining, niggling concern that these scans were taken with what our friend Graham calls, "blunt instruments."
We found the Nomogram prediction tool online. Maybe that will help with my decision making, maybe not.
