Hello once again. My father completed 6 courses of docetaxel chemotherapy (last one on 23/05/2023) and he is getting Zoladex injections every 3 months. Last PSA result was 0.89 (14/07/2023). But as he was getting better and the effects of chemotherapy (mainly neuropathy) were subsiding, the PSA test which was done yesterday showed that it has increased and is 2.31. We will repeat the PSA test again in 1 month. Also, I was thinking of checking his testosterone levels since we haven't done it before. I know that things will be clearer when we do the PSA test in 1 month, but I am nervous if he already developed hormone resistance.
any thoughts?
