Does thus look like a “bounce”?

I see MO today.

History. Sbrt in 10-23.

PSA at 1st checkup had risen to 11.8 12/23 Put down to post radiation inflammation.

PSA 1/24 -8.6

PSA 5/24 - 4.6

PSA today 6.4.

No ADT

No,, it looks like persistant PCa. Did you ever have a PSMA PET scan?

[Chasbearcat999 in reply to Tall_Allen]

I did before treatment. It was negative.

Not a doctor but from what I have read on this issue I remember the “bounce” comes much latter if at all. I also read that SBRT appears to cause more of a bounce than say IMRT. No real evidence presented to say why this is true.

Just a SWAG but perhaps PSA on 2/24 is a nadir. By the way SWAG is a highly recognized term that really means the validity of my statement is useless.
