Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 My husband had a second opinion today, this Dr. at least took more ex-rays to verify that it has spread to the bones, instead of saying no radiation because he had a "highly suspicious" bone scan. My question was, What if its in the lymph nodes also? The reply was If its in the bones its already in the lymph nodes because it spreads there first, then to the bones. Has anyone heard of this?? He is on hormone therapy, because its attached, so no surgery, and first Dr. said it was in the bones so that meant no radiation. Gleason scores were 6s and one 7, PSA 28, 9out of 12 biopsy samples 60 to 100% positive. This really really worries me because basically he has no symptoms of prostate cancer but it has spread to the bones( if indeed it has) This makes me think this could be very aggressive, and I'm a far shot from a medical Dr. Any one have any thoughts along this avenue?? This is sooo stressful. I know we are not walking this road alone, but its sure full of obstacles. Dianne K. New Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. Call regular phones from your PC and save big.
