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.
Since this is an International Forum, please specify your location in your post.
Jon here with a subject that could use a couple of inputs. Twelve years ago, had surgery plus salvage radiation. PSA has hovered around .1 to .13 ever since. Last PSA was at .19. This has my attention but have been told not to be concerned. Easy for them to say! Am planning to check again in three months for consistency. Too early to be concerned? Jon.
Don: The mystery deepens. The next PSA at the same lab went to a.32. Now it has my attention. Went to the Urologist that did my original treatment, and he agreed it was time to look closer. Did a precautionary PSA test before doing anything drastic and that test came back as UNDETECTABLE, now what to think? Jon.
