PSA on the back foot

Great news for me today. After my 12 year up and down journey with Prostate cancer I am now seeing some hope for a bright future. I must say though that I have been here before and gone backwards into disappointment when my PSA has taken an unexpected upturnafter radiation therapy had brought it under control. But this is different. I am on a roll with 4 clear brain scans behind me following 2 Glioblastomer brain tumours and no further development of my melanoma's I am feeling super confident that I am kicking Cancer's butt. Today I recieved my second undetectable PSA reading in 6 months after taking Hormone therapy for 15 months. I have 1x Suprefast injection 3 monthly and take 1 x Caloxa tablet daily. I have not had two successive undetecable readings since immediately after my prostate gland was removed in 2006. This is a two year treatment plan, which currently looks as if it will finish at the end of this year, God willing, should my PSA remain undetectable. Hallelujah!!!
