Just got the call from my doctor's office, still undetectable at 9 months out. With positive margins showing up on my pathology report, I have been nervous awaiting the results. Aren't we always nervous?

Drinks on me!

Nothing like a Zero! Congrats!

As far as nervous waiting for the PSA results; I work with a guy who had his surgery 7 years ago. His PSA was still high right after surgery, so he had the SRT 3 months after surgery. Since then, nothing but zeroes. He still gets nervous before each PSA test; which his doctor just changed to only once per year.

Since this beast has been known to come back after 15; or even 20; years, I don't suppose I will ever be able to have my blood drawn without some anxiety. But I do love to see those Zeroes! :-)

Thanks everyone. I had to drive down to my doctor's office and pick up a copy of the blood work to add to my medical journal. Gotta see it in writing. <0.1!
Good luck to all the other April members being tested this month.

I finally got the psa anxiety down to only the min it takes between the time my nurse says " Oh hi Jack, just a minute,pause………. Its less than. 0.1 Jack. Then I tell her she's the most most beautiful nurse in the world. Then I twitter my apology to the world with a wide and beautiful smile tee hee.
