On March 1, I had my three monthly blood works, oncology appointment, and Eligard shot. My PSA went down to 0.193 from 0.266 three months ago. This is not as low as I expected. When I restarted ADT treatment in September 2020, my PSA drop rate was lower than the rate when I started initial treatment in November 2018. That time my PSA dropped dramatically from 4.48 before start of treatment to 0.17 in three months. Then it drop to 0.10, 0.07, 0.06 in three monthly intervals.
At that point my stopped ADT and PSA rose from 0.06 to 0.453 in nine months. But the rise from 0.135 to 0.453 was over three months when my T rose only from 114 to 147. Then I restarted ADT in September 2020. My PSA dropped to 0.266 and then to 0.193 in six months. My oncologist wanted to stop Eligard but I insisted to get another shot and decide in June whether to stop depending on the PSA at that time. Did I take the right decision? In June, I will get the annual chest Xray, CT scan, and bone scan.
