PSA rockets up to 344
My
PSA
has jumped to 344 from a low of 3.6 last November, when I completed chemo with cabazitaxel.
PSA
did start to rise quite soon, into double digits, but this is by far my highest
PSA
ever. Dr.

PSA Dropped after 22 days of Zytiga
Today I had a
PSA
test. My
PSA
dropped from 0.8 on November 1 to 0.44 today. I was not expecting such dramatic fall in
PSA
after only 22 days of Abiraterone . I will have another
PSA
test on January 4. Should I expect further fall in
PSA
?

Dutasteride Monotherapy is effective for Newly Diagnosed PCa men not on ADT
Dutasteride monotherapy (0.5 mg/day) causes an average drop in
PSA
of about 50% in both Groups, and an average drop of about 20% in prostate volume. In one man, his
PSA
dropped from 43 to 3 (a 93% drop)!

Rising ALP and declining PSA
After starting I have declining
PSA
but dramatically rising ALP. Any thoughts on what this means? Thanks all.

Dumb Question about rising PSA after initial RT.
If you still have a prostate after RT treatment 7 years ago ( NO ADT), could a slowly rising
PSA
just be 'natural' as you age?

PCA Cure and when?
PSA
is 0 on ADT and Abiraterone and methylprednisolone. Averaged 8,600 steps/day. I have just started to add occasional sprinting. I am taking multiple supplements. I am greatful that my
PSA
is 0. I work everyday and pray for a cure. What is our best hope for a cure and when?

Rising PSA
My
PSA
has been undetectable (<0.01) for all that time. This week it was .02 I’m going to redo the test to make sure. Then my urologist wants to refer me to a radiation oncologist. Has anyone had any experience with this. It’s really been hard trying to sort this all out.

PSA 6 months after RT
Ravi at ASCO 2023, regarding measuring the
PSA
at 6 months post radiation treatment, for all risk groups. He found that the 6-month post-RT
PSA
was highly prognostic of 5- and 10-year rates of metastasis free survival (MFS), Overall Survival (OS), and prostate cancer mortality (PCSM).

PSA Score Doubling / Lab Error?
So, my prostate is not going to ever generate a lot of
PSA
on an absolute scale. However, a doubling of
PSA
at any level is concerning when cancer is already diagnosed in the patient.

PSA Gone Up
In November 2023, I had my first
PSA
test since SRT and it was .008 ng/mL. I just got another
PSA
test yesterday and the number has gone up to .015 ng/mL. Should I be worried?
