This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer. There are only four rules:
No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

I just recieved my first PSA results after being diagnosed with PCa. The PSA was 0.93 and I was very pleased in that it was lower than any previous pre-PCa PSA tests.
I have just read PSA 101 as well as a few similar posting and now realise that my PSA reading of 0.93 may be somewhat meaningless inasmuch as the blood was drawn about 20 minutes after a DRE.
How long should I wait to get another PSA which would not be compomised by a DRE?
