"If you have prostate cancer - move to another..."

About: Hereford County Hospital

After five months of difficulty urinating and hours of discomfort and frequent excruciating pain. 5 trips to A&E, two catheterisations, and urine removed with a syringe, my husband still has another 4-6 weeks to wait to see a urologist.

It also seems that he may need to be referred to a specialist out of county.

There seems to be no out of ours urology cover. Basically,if you have prostate cancer, you are better off moving to Gloucestershire.
