Thanks for the good thoughts.

Fantastic, Gerry!!

Gerry knows, but others may not - I'm on the same trial. My last PSA in Sept. was 0.1 (up from "undectable") & 6 months after the end of the medication phase. Next PSA is in about two weeks. I suspect it will increase substantially as I think the effects of Lupron are finally wearing off.
