PSA went from 0.32 to 0.37, statistically the same. Blood and metabolic panels still make me look like I'm 25, though my mirror's not buying it. Went to a monthly Lupron shot, so far side effects are easier but it's early. Would like to have seen a decrease in PSA but will take this result for now.

Is it the injections you like, jk
No, it's the reduced side effects. Though I have to admit the smaller needle is a plus. With the bigger shot came a bigger needle. It felt like they were drilling down for a bone biopsy.
That makes sense, I dread my 6 month shot.
Though I still needed a 2 hour nap by mid afternoon, my legs weren't rubbery and my balance was ok. The 3 month shots had me walking into walls a couple hours after. The bigger issue is that I had very little emotional control for the next week to 10 days. We'll see about the emotional control over the rest of the week.
Try adding some walking or slow jogging to your routine, its great therapy both mental and physical.
Yes, you are right on. Exercise has been crucial for me for keeping side effects at bay. I lift 3 days a week (2 upper body circuits, one lower body) and walk the track 3 days. I used to do high intensity interval training but 2 weeks on casodex (before Lupron and zytiga) eliminated that.
why are u worried with a psa of .32, or .37. do u know the average mAle without cancer is from .0-4.0. go out to dinner have a drink and forget this problem have every 6 months a psa dude

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
