9 months since surgery went from 2 tests at <0.010 to 0.014, my surgeon says its nothing to worry about , but cant help feeling a tad worried. Next PSA reading is in 4 months.

Yes, not what you wanted, but at these low PSA numbers there's a lot of noise in the results.

Disappointed, yes, but you're not allowed to worry until you see a rising pattern climbing over .03 on at least three tests.

Let us know the results of your next test.

I'll also reassure you that it's nothing to worry about

Very similar. One year since surgery went from 4 PSA readings < .010 to 5th of .018, URO said retest in 1 month and next appointment in 3 months. Indicated that the 2 additional checks would provide meaningful data to support any action. So, just bidding my time til early September test.

Same thing happened to us at the 9 month mark. We've been pretty much hanging there ever since (for the most part).
