Saw him this am and PSA still at 0.1(from 840 at Dx in 01/15) and testosterone for some reason still at 16 despite having the last Lupron shot on 03/30/17. I'm Stage IV with mets to ureter lymph nodes. Did 15 chemos in 2015 and now and an advocate with ZERO and gonna do the NYC marathon in November - Help me share my story - I wear a sign at my marathons telling my story and trying to spark a conversation

Well done

Great response, hope it keeps going. Don't worry at all about your testosterone level. 16 is plenty low. Anything below 20 is great and considered castrate level. Those who've had surgery get down to 15 or 16 so that's a great number to be at. Hoping for your continued success.
