My PSA is on the move, in the wrong direction.

well, I don't have to worry about which visit to the MO will be the one where my PSA climbs up out of the "undetectable " range any more. It was 0.1 this morning, up from less than 0.04 three months ago. I was hoping i would be on just Eligard for longer than average, but i didn't even get to 2 years. I guess my wife and i can stop wondering about what's next, because we will be finding out.

I would wait for the next PSA. Take care and good luck.

You will stay on Eligard (the cancer will progress much more quickly without it) and add another medicine to it at some point. Your PSA is still low enough that you can wait awhile before adding the next medicine.

Well, we will see what the next visit shows. My Testosterone was up from 9 to 14 as well ; and so was my ALP, it is still in the acceptable range but definetly higher than it has been running. The cancer was aggressive before treatment, hopefully it wont come back the same.

Sending you positive get well thoughts. .1 is still really low. Try to eat a little healthier. (It can't hurt) Try some deep breathing. Maybe one of the prolonFMD kits for a week.(If that sounds interesting) There are tons of suggestions for supplements on this site that you can try integrating. They might help. I was just reading about Rovol V®, I have no idea if it really helps. Pectasol is worth researching.. they have chewables now that taste kind of like candy and make it easier to tolerate. (My better half really did not like the drink)

Prayers,
