Good number, it will go lower as time moves on.

Idog, that sounds good. You're certainly headed in the right direction. Congrats!

Congratulations. Seems to be doing the job.

Yep, doc came, said great news, PSA is 2.8. Asked me if I had any problems, I said nope. He said everything looks good, and it's what we want to see. Three months from now it should be even lower, now get out and enjoy.
Badabing, badaboom!
Love that guy!

Second psa test in the books after therapy. PSA now 1.75. YAY!
I'm now having my test taken by my gen practitioner since my uro is over an hour away. This is the same lab that I originally had 5.6 and 5.2.
Happy 4th all.

Nice result. Things appear to be going as hoped. I expect it will continue.

See - I said it would go lower and it did!

Good news!

excellent news Idog!

Great news. The trend is your friend and it will continue. Some don’t reach nadir in 4-5 years so just be patient. How are the treatment side effects?

Idog, congrats. That's a great trend. As JNF says, it may take time to hit your nadir so be patient...look at my stats...it took me six years. How about the SE's?

Good result. The combo radiation seems to be a clever choice for your particular case.

At 8 months out, pretty much zero SE's. What's interesting is that I can drink water, etc. like fish at a ball game, out and about, etc. and not have to pee. But say I'm at work knowing that I have bathroom down the hall, for some reason I get crazy urgency at times if I think about it. Go figure.
