PSA Doubled along with anxiety

It's been I year since I started zoladex, post opp psa of 0.60 at six weeks, gest I should back up a bit, I also had RT done along with the zoladex. Ok so for the the last year my PSA has been holding steady at 0.0 1 and the occasional <0.01 infact this was where it was on match 20th. I just got back a test I had done four days ago because I have a meeting with my oncologist on Fri. My T went down to 0.6 from 2.5 And my PSA doubled to 0.02 , iam hoping this a minor hicup or mabye a small flair as result of The RT .Needless to say my anxiety levels are having a good time right now. Speculation any one .. Oh for got mention I still on zoladex which makes this even more unnerving.

I see oncologist on Fri.

I always said I didn't know if The RT did anything or not mabye this is an indicator that is , I lost a a friend last week who fought this disease for twelve years,he was 56. The last six months were the worst. It was an honor and a privilege to assist him with his daily care. One thing he told me was Dan don't second guess anything no matter how small, follow up on it. He will always be in my thoughts.
A tiny number, a tic, a bleep, yes. I will try not to worry. We all have our moments don't we. This is an incredible site, I my not contribute much but you are all in my thoughts on a daily basis.

Up again April <.01 may. 02 July. 03 still slowly rising one point at a time. Not liking the trend minute as it may be. After holding steady at. 01 for the last year especially being on zoladex for the past 15 months. Time to hit the zorazepam. Like purg said pretty insignificant in the bigger picture, but doesn't help with curbing the anxiety. Good to see you back purg - David

Hi bill
I realize I'm still in the undetectable range, it just gets my anxiety going because of the upward trend that's happening, I got to comfortable for the last year with it always being in 01 to<01 range.I have always suffered from high anxiety and it doesn't take much to set me off . I see my oncologist On sept 11 so Ill see what they think.
Buy this time with the RT and ADT I was hoping to see it in the. 00 range.
Only time will tell. Feb will be my last zoladex shot was hoping for a long reprieve off this crap ,but if the numbers keep inching up every month like their doing …… ges I'll cross that bridge when it comes.

Could be statistical noise...one of the issues with the ultra sensitive test.....if indeed you are moving up it is by the 1/100 of a point....pretty small....relax , take a breathe, you won't really know until you have more data points.....worrying does absolutely no good !! Zero !! Trust me..
