Thanks Tim. I believe next test is in 3 months' time and if everything ok, PSA tests may be extended to 6 months or a year :-)

Good 😊 I never had that low levels. My first test 5 weeks after RP came at 0,03 ... Happy it has been always around this level.

All the best to you.

Congrats Paulo. I had RP Surgery 8/21...at 8 weeks PSA .01...then 3 months later .05 and a month later .04. Now they just want to wait and see what happens. A bit confusing to see the mini roller coaster. :)

It should be a good sign that PSA got down, shouldn't it?

One hopes...just a bit perplexing that it went up to .05 from .01...then down a hair.

Sort of like limbo: How low can you go? Good news indeed.

Huzzah!!!

I am at 14 months with undetectable. My MO will see me in six months; I will recheck PSA in three. It IS a good feeling.

How are you doing?

My last PSA was 0.013 so the radiotherapy seems to have worked. I’m getting one this week and will let you know how I get on.

Yes please keep me posted. Crossing fingers for you.

I got the PSA result in August it was 0.025 November 0.013 and now 0.024. Disappointing it’s gone back up again. I’m hoping it’s just a bounce but next test in three months will tell.
