Rising PSA

[Howard53545]

Just received results. It’s .22, up from.16 in May, and up from .08 last Aug so it’s on the move, probably not high enough for Axium scanner. Hormone here I come.

My lastPSA was a 0.41....From a 0.37. and before that 0.29..A regular rise..Doubling at every 2.5 months....I may need radiation and hormone therapy. Going for one more test before committing...I also am getting a MRI and cat scan. Last tests 3 months ago showed no sign of cancer. i hate the idea of random radiation.

Yes, I agree but make sure they zap your lymph nodes too. I am not sure if you are in the range of the Axumin scanner yet. It can pin point the pc.

Hi Howard!

My PSA has been pretty steady at 0.12 for the last 4 years.

It just shot up to 0.33. So did my Testeron.

My Oncologist said if it keeps rising I will have to go back on Lupton.

That really makes me nervous due to the awful side effects.

I am not familiar with the Axium Scan you mentioned.

What results can it provide?

Any other suggestions to help me avoid Lupton?

Thank You!

Thank You.
