I haven't been here in a couple of months but just wanted to bring my buddies up to date.  I went down to AL to see my doctor last week.  I was scheduled to go in May but had to reschedule due to work.  My PSA in January had risen slightly to 2.4 from 2.1..  This was a little worrysome for me even though the dr. said not to be alarmed since slight elevations are not that unusual.  My report last week indicated that the PSA had DROPPED to 1.4!!!  I really think I have this beat now.  I am teaching in Loudoun County, VA and have never been happier in my life!!  Hope everyone is doing well!!

Great news Trey! As you can see from my info below, we've taken the same treatment path. My last psa was up this June, and now I'm waiting like you did for the next test. I'm also hoping for just a "bounce". So your news is encouraging!

Best….

Hello Trey,  I'm pleased to hear from you and happy for your excellent PSA.  I, too had a bounce, but it went down a bit and I"m looking forward to my next check in September.  I'm also happy to hear that you are doing your natural work (teaching) in the area (Virginia) that you like the best.  Sometimes you get chicken and sometimes you get feathers.  When I first heard form you it was feathers - it seems that it is now chicken.  Get to see the kids?

Regards,

Bill

It's great to hear from everyone! Sounds like our cases are very similar Merkleman! I wish the best for you and bet you will get good results also. I miss talking to all of you but should have more time now that I will have somewhat normal hours. I have workshops and meetings all this week and next and get the kids on Sept. 2! M.Kat, I use to live in Germantown! GO BAMA!! Trey
