Y&T frontman Dave Meniketti, who is battling prostate cancer, is updating fans on his progress. 

Meniketti took to social media yesterday writing, “It’s been a strange 7 months with 4 blood tests, 2 hour-long MRIs, 2 CAT scans, a PET scan, a hospital procedure with radioactive seeds implanted, an office SpaceOAR Gel procedure, and 28 radiation treatments with an awesome futuristic machine. Started out super stressful waiting for all the results to come in from each test, then reconciled with it all and was ready to just get it done.” 

He went on to say, “Even with all the above, it was by no means anything I should ever be whining about in comparison to those who are going through life threatening cancer treatments with chemo. Yes, there have been side effects, which are expected to last for 4 months, disrupting my daily life, but I’m doing well and happy to be finally finishing what I expect/hope will have rid me of prostate cancer.”
