Dermot Murnaghan, a well-known news presenter, has publicly shared his diagnosis of Stage IV advanced prostate cancer. He expresses gratitude for his medical team and highlights his positive response to treatment, crediting the support of his loved ones. Murnaghan urges men over 50 and those at risk to get tested, advocating for routine prostate screenings. He is also preparing to participate in a charity bike ride in Glasgow to raise awareness and encourage community support. His announcement has prompted an outpouring of support from fans and colleagues alike.
I'm fortunate to have a simply outstanding medical team looking after me, who I can't thank enough - they are administering the best possible care with expertise, compassion and sensitivity.
My message to all men over 50, in high-risk groups, or displaying symptoms, is get yourself tested and campaign for routine prostate screening by the NHS.
I'm aiming to take part in Sir Chris Hoy's fundraising charity bike ride in Glasgow in September - please support it and join us if you can.
Early detection is crucial. And be aware, this disease can sometimes progress rapidly without obvious symptoms.
