Rising PSA
I have been a reader for a few months and decided to join the conversation. I listed details in my profile so will give a short summary here. RP May 2019. Post ADT and IMRT PSA rise from undetectable last September to 2.1 last month. At my request, urologist and RO are referring me to UCLA for PSMA

RT and ADT for High Risk PCa
In Apr 2018 I was diagnosed with PCa Gleason 5+5 and PSA of 250. PSMA Pet Scan showed tumour only in Prostrate with one ECE and Seminal Vesicles involvement. There were no Nodes visible and no mets. I immediately was put on Firmagon in June 2018. This was followed in Nov/Dec 18 with 44 sessions of 78

PSA Time to Nadir
I'm 54, had RARP and IMRT, and am on the Eligard/Abiraterone regimen. My PSA has decreased from 340 to 0.63 over eight months. I've noticed that some people tend to have an immediate drop. Does the time to nadir indicate how long you will stay at this point before failure? I thought I had seen a

When does rising PSA require further treatment.
2010 robotic prostatectomy at City of Hope, 2018 IMRT 3 months ADT at Johns Hopkins. Last 6 PSA tests at 6 month intervals: .03, .04, .04, .05, .02 and last .05. If PSA continues to rise, when is further treatment recommended?

Severe brain injury experiences?

Pulmonary function test tomorrow...
The pulmonary function test I had just before I was admitted to the
intensive
care
was 56% lung capacity. I am kind of nervous. Having a lot of trouble breathing lately, even while just getting dressed these days.

New to the prostate cancer community
I am 76 years old and recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. A rise in PSA from 5.4 to 7.4 plus a bump felt on my prostate led to an MRI scan. That showed a 2.5x2 cm PIRADS 5 area on right side and smaller PIRADS 3 on the left. A biopsy with 20 samples, 12 random and 4 each of the two areas found

Linking CFS mechanisms to failure to recover in intensive care
This important paper carefully describes the linkages between the reasons for failure to recover in ICU patients, and CFS. It brings in thyroid problems among many others. Downloadable.
Hypothesis: Mechanisms That Prevent Recovery in Prolonged ICU Patients Also Underlie Myalgic Encephalomyelitis

Hmm... So in 2/20 my RO says I'm "cured", however, my MO butts in and declares...not so fast Bozo!!
After HDR Brachy and 25 days of IMRT (2019), RO does a brief DRE, looks me in the eye and states " you are not going to die from APC"! GREAT!! No more Lupron and I can taper off Z and P!! Well, MO reminds me that I still meet 2/3 of the Stampede Trial criteria (G9 and PSA>20. My high was 28) and he

Change in PSA testing method
Previous testing was centaur chemilumisometric immunoassay with PSA of 0.31. Fifteen weeks later, the new method is ECLIA with PSA of 0.63. I'm been tracking the failure of RP and IMRT with rising PSA and plan to independently schedule PSMA in Europe. My UO has me waiting, doing nothing. What does
