Results are in From my PET Scan…

A few months back, I received the disheartening news that my PSA level had risen slightly to 0.3. Although this is not drastic, it’s a great concern as it means there is some activity going on somewhere else in my body rather than my prostate

What a Week!

Another amazing week in Worcestershire! Worcestershire Prostate Awareness kicked things off Monday 18th June at the Worcester Racecourse for a busy World Cup themed PSA testing event, sponsored by the fabulous Worcestershire Ambassadors. As you can imagine, there were MANY men there ready to be tested…

Amazing PSA Event in Droitwich!

Last weekend, the Worcestershire Prostate Awareness Group ran another hugely successful PSA testing event in Droitwich. Thanks to the hard work, dedication and passion from everyone involved, 249 men were tested throughout the day – that’s AMAZING! 

Worcestershire Prostate Awareness Trust

I can’t reiterate enough how much I value the Worcestershire Prostate Awareness Trust. Not only do I value the amazing work they do, organising PSA testing events that tens of thousands of men have attended so far, but also for the fact, if it wasn’t for them, I probably wouldn’t be here today.

A Hugely Successful PSA Event!

A week ago today, we held the PSA testing event at the Six Ways Stadium. It was amazing! We tested about 260 men in total throughout the night, and, for a few men, it was their first time getting a PSA test.

PSA Test – What you Need to Know

The PSA testing event is nearly here! It’s come around so quick, and had a hugely positive response. Spaces for the test filled up rapidly, as awareness of male cancers (prostate in particular) is spreading, people are starting to listen, and men are thinking more about their health. 

19.04.18 PSA Testing Event Fully Booked!

What an amazing year for prostate awareness so far! After testing over 250 men in Bromsgrove, the momentum has remained strong and there are many more men keen to have their PSA tests, realising this quick blood test could save their lives. 

Over 500 men so far Will have their PSA Test! Let’s Fight Cancer Together

It’s amazing how rapidly awareness of prostate cancer is spreading. In light of Stephen Fry’s  diagnosis, it really hammers home the message that no man is invincible. This non-discriminatory disease that 1 in 8 men will get, is no longer being ignored – we’re fighting this disease together, and winning, one PSA test at a time.

A SHOUT-OUT TO THE MEN OF WORCESTERSHIRE!

19.04.18 – Save the date.

If you follow my blog or  Twitter, @Prost8CancerWR, you’ll already know I’ve been helping to co-ordinate a PSA testing event, an initiative made possible with the help of the Worcestershire Ambassadors, The Worcestershire Prostate Awareness Group, and Six Ways Stadium who are facilitating this event.

This is my call to every lad, dad and man to have their PSA test done. A quick, simple blood test that could be the difference between life and death.
