Got the good news this morning that my six month PSA Following DaVinci Surgery is 0!!!
All is going well. Using no pads, no leaks, and having success with Levitra.

Great news. Also good because it shows that even with a positive margin, you can still get the 0's.

Great news Larry. Just out of curiosity, is your URO using ultra sensitive PSA testing ?

Sorry but I don't know on the sensitivity. They have only told me that with my positive margin if i hit >.1 then I need to start radiation. He wants me to come back at month 10 for another test. Thought it would be at 12 months but the Doc is being careful. I'll ask in 4 more months when I go through the nerve game again.

I too am watching PSA for signs of reoccurence. Ultrasensitive goes down to .01. I figure that if it starts at .01 or .02, then if I see it start to climb to .07 or .08. I can start to see a pattern. I know many doctors like the .1 because it stops guys like me from causing them a lot of phone calls, but to me, I just want to know. All they have to do is just check a box, or write ultrasensitive on the script
