I hope my battle with prostate cancer is on hold. Just had my test results today and my PSA was 0.03 and very low T. It has been one heck of a year starting with surgery to remove my prostate and surrounding lymph nodes then 5 months later radiation treatments. Next test December 6th hope it holds.

Van123, you are about a year ahead of me and are giving me hope. I do not know how advanced your cancer was (is), but hopefully it will stay in remission. Mine is advanced Ductal (rare, about 0.4% of all prostate cancers) G 8 (4+4), T3N1Mx, Stage 4D1. This last April they took out my prostate (the surgeon at first did not want to operate) along with 15 lymph nodes (one 100%cancer). Started hormonal last June and I will soon start my third week of radiation.

Let's strive to have PSA less than 0.1!
