My son was treated for prostate cancer 8 years ago. He is going from doctor to doctor looking for where the cancer may have gone to, becoming more and more anxious, from test to test, doctor to doctor. He saw a psychologist a few days ago who suggested he exercise, that he was a class A personality and depressed and scheduled an appointment two weeks from now. I am afraid he is going to be unable to function at all. What can I suggest he do? He is looking for reassurance and as soon as a test is fine, the spiral begins again and it is heightening to the point he wants to see a doctor practically daily.
Dear, Thanks for your quarry, ask your son to be happy as long as there is no symptom related to prostate or any bony pains which occur due to metastasis. Only one test that is serum PSA level is the indicator if the cancer is static, or it is progressing. You are lucky that other than finding out at what stage the cancer is your son has no problem. So be happy and convey your son the same. Truly,
