I had a PSA test 3.5 years post-op and the results were 0.02, sounds good? I forgot to ask my Dr. how often I should be tested now, what say you?

congrats on the zeero club membership - wow! 3.5 years - good for you !!
I am at two years and a bit and I am at one PSA test a year - it all depends on your doc - your staging - and risk factor -
-I would like to say - clear sailing ahead - here's to a lifetime of zero's !!

I love zeros!!! Congratulations.
a retest? I'd say anytime you want but every six months or once a year is a reasonable time.
My doc has me on the every six months plan at the moment.
