Did 6 infusion docetaxel which ended in Nov. I have multiple mets at the femur, lymph nodes and spine. Then started with Lucrin and Zometa ( once every three months). PSA has been creeping up from 0.149 to 0.833. I do workout every day. Physically, I feel very well. MO suggested we continue to monitor and if it continues to creep up, he suggested that I do PET scan in July. The next possible course of action could be using Enzalutamide. Looking forward to any inputs or advice from anyone. God bless

Consider Zytiga or Xofigo (not both) when PSA hits 2.0 or if your PSADT<6 months.
My diagnosis similar to yours, December 18. After docetaxel gave me a nadir of 0.26, it crept up to 0.57 within the same time frame and my oncologist then advised, and put me on abiraterone, sooner rather than later.
My psa drifted down to a new nadir of 0.02 last Christmas after a year, and is currently 0.06.
Why let the cancer build? Hammer it down again.
