He y, that is great.. As chemo kills cells they dump PSA into the blood, Until the space after #4 and before #5 all you do is scare yourselves. Then you should see a decline that may continue for up to to a year if you are lucky.
Could be a flare as mentioned.... Is he getting scans done too?
Think of it as meeting a handsome guy for the first time....Blood Pressure rises and after a few dates it drops.....
