My situation is very similar to yours. Diagnosed July 2018 at 55 years old. PSA 103. 6 rounds of docetaxel. Now on Zoladex.

My PSA and testosterone were down to around your level when I finished chemo last winter. Your readings are very good. My PSA continued to decline slowly eventually hitting a nadir of 0.17. It went up and down a few times since but has always stayed below 0.4. My oncologist said there is no concern about it bouncing around as long as it stays below 1.0 or doesn't have a large one month jump upward.

Best of luck to you.

Excellent. My PSA did not go to undetectable until 10 months after. I stayed on Lupron. T was under 5 and stayed there.......
