I guess I'm just looking for some one to tell me I'm nuts LOL. Ive been in the zero club since 2014, I stopped all vitamins ect other then sildenafil. Round 8 months ago my nourolgist started me on Ritalin and I started taking Niacin a few days a week for detoxing (night time woody's from that stuff) and a Multi vitamin. I'm extra stressed this time, my test is 1st week in January 2017 and I cant shake this dam anxiety. It seems like I have more urgency to urinate (probably the Ritalin).
Anyway I'm hoping to be told I'm nuts or have a anxiety condition.
Thanks for letting me vent

Vent away. There is a lot riding on the test results. We all get anxiety near PSA tests.

and you do have an anxiety condition - PC, it's a known anxiety generator.

Hang in there, the day is almost there.

Ok. You're nuts. You will retain your membership in the zero club! That's my gut feeling.

We're both nuts. I have my 5 year the first week of February and I've already started "examining"every little ache and pain. I had hoped this would go away with time, but I've accepted its just the way I'm wired. Sure can't beat the feeling you get when you hear that word "undetectable" though. Good luck to you and Merry Christmas!

I get my PSA every four weeks. Always anxiety. They should call this the stress test. You can see by my sig that I have the aggressive cancer, G9. But I saw a small PSA decline this month. So I know what it's like waiting for test results. Oh, I want to join the zero club.

Fmann, sorry about what your going through. I know I got a lot to be happy about. Didn't mean to sound like I was complaining. I'll pray for zero for you bud
