Martin receiving radiotherapy for prostate cancer
Martin receiving radiotherapy – two green lasers are used to align my body (using four tattoos on my chest lower abdomen and thighs) then after alignment the nurses must leave the irradiation area they dim the lights and the x-ray machine (10MV) delivers five fractions of radiation to my abdomen. In December 2007 (aged 53) I was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the prostate. My PSA was 13.6 staging was T2c N0 M0 and my Gleason score was 4+4=8. I had a radical retropubic prosatectomy February 2008. Three months later my PSA was still high indicating the cancer was still present and had spread. A tumour was found in my abdominal lymph system. I started radiotherapy in spring of 2009 (attending 5 weeks (25 days) at Royal Preston) and it was one of the most depressing times of my cancer treatment – each day for five weeks I was reminded I had (probably) incurable cancer.
