Hi all,
Next week I have my first 3 monthly PSA. Did not think I was worried, however I have dreamt 2 nights in a row that I missed my vampire appointment. May be more worried then I care to admit! In the cold light of day I feel quite confident.

Will post next week with the good news.

At the moment I am camping with my wife on a beautiful river in western New South Wales with hardly another human in sight or hearshot. Wonderful!

Unfortunately, It is back to work next week.

Hope all is as good as it can be for you all.

Cheers
Greg

Hi ,
Much good luck next week. As a fellow 3+4 with tertiary 5 entrant just thought I would pass on that my 3 month test came back at <0.01 in may this year. This was with EPE with clear margins.

In 2 weeks I get a post RT PSA check so back to fingers crossed time for me as well.

Decided to go for RT at 4 months due to Established EPE along with extrapostatic PNI. Hit it hard philosophy at play!
Also due to start a 6 months late gap year with my wife Elspeth in November starting in Ballina in your part of the world I think. Missing out a Scottish winter sound like a very good plan and I am not going to let this bump along the way put me off.
Cheers
James

This next weekend will be 1 year since my last Eligard shot so in 3 weeks I get the next blood draw. Will keep my fingers crossed for sure. Am also 2 & 1/2 years out from ART (80 Gy) and almost 3 years out from the DaVinci RP.

It would be fun to at least have a little testosterone again someday......without the PSA, of course. Good luck. Greg. :)

Regards,

Rich

PSA anxiety is real. Happens to all of us.

Enjoy your trip and try to distract yourself from thinking about it for a few days.

Here's hoping for a zero.

Thanks everyone,
Best of luck James, and yes Ballina is only about an hour and a half from Grafton. Will be be going past in on Thursday week to get my results on the Gold Coast.
Good luck to you as well Trailguy!
Intheshop, the holiday has been a great distraction and here's hoping for a zero as well.
Cheers
