good input

10 years (BCR age 51) after surgery (surgery age 41) I went from PSA 9 to PSA 19 in two months and during those two months we did imaging in sequence because of insurance requirements from Bone to CT to MRI to PSMA PET and nothing found the cancer, except for the PSMA PET. It found 20+ lymph nodes primarily in the right and left iliac region and also middle part of body and a spot on my left shoulder. Because the location was a bit all over the place, radiation was ruled out as an option. Now on couplet ADT (leuprolide and abiraterone) and PSA less than 0.1 for the past 12 months.

Thanks for the reply. The person that was next to me after my Proctectomy at UofM was only 40 years old at the time. That was 5 years ago.

That is great news that for the past 12 months PSA is less than 0.1 Have they combined hormone therapy with anything else, and how are your energy levels doing... It is crazy that they found a spot on your left shoulder. Have never heard of such a thing. Thank you veyr much for your input. - Dave
