I haven’t posted for several weeks as I’ve been monitoring my PSA on a weekly basis. Prior to my first injection my PSA was at 110 and doubling every three weeks. After 6 weeks my PSA has declined to 37.4. I’ll receive my next injection on Friday and look forward to a continued decline in PSA. I would love to drop to non-detectable as in 5 years of this journey I’ve never dropped below 0.2 even after surgery, 67 fractions of radiation, 6 cycles of taxotere and 2 years of Lupron and Zytiga.
I’ll keep posting as I go through the next several weeks.
Stay positive and keep fighting!!

will remember all these treatments will stop working and then u need to relax until something comes new. i just finished PROVENGE it doesn't low ones psa but it helps in other areas.
Great news regarding your first treatment. Is the trial at Mayo part of the Vision trial at other sites in the Country?
I had a treatment in September at Heidelberg Univ. — Lu-177 plus Yttrium-90. I have several metatastasis but my PSA is quite low-less than one and now falling. I will likely have a have additional C-11 scans at Mayo Clinic to determine effectiveness of German treatment.
Good luck on your future treatments- we are all pulling for you!
