PSA is an indicator, not a growth factor. You had an excellent response.

My advice is: don't think about what the cancer is doing, think about what you are doing and how to make the most of your precious life.

PSA doubling time is the indicator of growrth & its rate.

While PSA is static, PCa isn't growing - assuming that your cells produce PSA.
