Hi,

My Dad ahs just been diagnosed with prostate Cancer and they say that it is moderate as they did not catch it early. He has been for an MRI (which he hates as he is very clostraphobic) and thus showed some "hotspots" on his liver -he then had a CT scan that showed lesions on his liver. My Dad is not talking about it and me and my sisters are worried about what this means? Does this mean that he also has cancer in his liver?

Hi Ciara,
I'm sorry to hear about your dad, I can understand why you are worried. If you would like to talk to a nurse about the lesions on your dad's liver, please call us at freephone: 1800 380 380. We also have information booklets (available free of charge) about prostate cancer and how to talk to someone with cancer which may be of help to you and your sisters.
Take care,
