ratio, for three different ages: 55, 65 and 75 y.o.. Interestingly, the PCa risk decreases as the % Free
PSA
ratio increases.

10th year
PSA
was .1 for a while. It crept up over .2, and I began taking lupron. The drug brought
PSA
back down to >.01 for a year or so. As the level started going up again, I received whole pelvis bed radiation, moving
PSA
to undetectable. After a year or so,
PSA
started climbing.

PSA went up after three treatments of chemotherapy
before the first treatment
PSA
was 89. after the first treatment
PSA
was 73.31.. after the second treatment
PSA
was 52.82. after the third treatment,
PSA
was 73.31.. does it make sense to take another chemotherapy treatment since the
PSA
has risen after the 3rd treatment?

Lupron unjection not reducing PSA
I was then put on Orgovyx, that did not stop
psa
from rising. I was then put on monthly injections of lupron, the
psa
was 25. Lupron dropped the
psa
to 10. I have been on lupron for 4 monthly injections. My
PSA
keeps rising, last
psa
test was 28 last month, guess I'm castrate resistant now.

PSA

psa rising
After a second rise in
psa
from .04 to .21 in three months we decided to meet with a medical oncologist to discuss next steps. I am inclined to get a scan to locate pc but it may be too low.

PSA rise
On Dec 6 my
PSA
was 0.04 then on March 19 it was 0.21 so this indicates a rise in Mets. Is this too low for a scan? What should be the next steps?

new PSA
my
PSA
rose from .04 in Jan to now .21 so it’s moving up. I assume this is still too low for a scan to determine where pc is at. I was undetected for 2 years after radiation of pelvic area.
