Patrick – best known for playing Mickey Pearce in Only Fools and Horses – told how the disease has now spread to his pelvis and legs.
He said: “Despite all the wonderful efforts by the medical and nursing teams at Medway, Guys, and Kings College hospitals, the lung cancer has returned.
“I thought I had a painful groin strain a couple of months ago, unfortunately that turned out to be the cancer getting into my pelvis and leg bones. It has also entered my lymphatic system.
“What about the good news? I had radiology treatment last week and my oncologist is fairly confident this will stop the leg pain, and I will be up and about again.
“Another positive is my consultant. He is confident that the chemo will keep things in check for months and even years.”
Patrick continued: “His optimism comes not from kindness of which I know he has in spades, but advances in cancer medicine.
“The genetic molecular tests are super precise, and the choice of meds can be made with much more confidence.
“I am feeling positive with my good wife’s awesome support.”
In January Patrick revealed he’d had half of his liver removed after doctors discovered a second cancer in 2022.
Speaking to The Celeb Report last year Patrick said he was “over the moon” to be cancer free.
Doctors discovered a tumour in his lung in July 2021.
