PSA Question

I got the results today from the labs I used for my recent PSA test. Labcorp was .90 and Wake Forest Medical was .79. I used these same 2 labs 2 years ago for comparison and wanted to compare them again. January, 2017, 2 years ago, Labcorp was exactly the same @ .90. Wake Forest 2 years ago was .75, compared to .79 now. If you look through my signature at my PSA results since Proton ended 4 years ago, what conclusions would you reach?

I reached 2:

1. My nadir will probably not fall below ~.75. Was hoping for <.50.
2. Aside from the bounce last January, the fact that my PSA is stable over 2 years is a good thing.

it really does not take a genius to answer your question...hence I shall refrain from doing so...DOH...

my conclusion: This is your round.

PARTY, celebrate!

Good news on the stable PSA.

.79 - .75 = .04 = "Noise" I say this because, what you refer to as a bounce could be just "noise". I am glad to hear from Proton guys because they are few but seem to have great results. Here's to a sustained PSA future.

I was referring to the 1.41 as the bounce.

Outlier....unless you absolutely, positively, must have something to obsess about.
