Well, after a month worth of anxiety and fear, I had my PSA retested at my regular lab and the result came back as <.01,
I'm grateful and thankful for the good news. I thank all of you who have encouraged and supported me. I will call my GP and tell him about
the new result. I had one foot out the door of the zero club but I'm moving back in. For now, a cold beer is called for.

Thanks BB_Fan and Jeff. It is amazing how a simple PSA test can wreck our lives or fill us with joy.

Ed, can't wait to meet you at GFMPH. I am quite sure that I will recognize you because that smile and grin you have on your face today, will still be there for all of us to see.
Congrats big time,

Hey Ed,
Thanks for letting us know the good news. Who else could understand the anxiety a simple PSA test can bring. So glad you're out of the woods.
I'll buy you a celebratory beer at GFMPH.
