My PSA Has doubled. What now?

Thanks for all the comments. I feel a little better about this. Next week I have my annual physical, followed by my 6 month check up with the urologist. I'm certain that both of those visits will be mostly about treatment options etc. I'm going to see if I can get some anxiety meds to help me deal with this. I rarely ever cry, but when I do it's usually due to frustration. I've been on the verge of tears about this and since the spring it's been a significant source of stress. Being 60 just stinks.

You'll be fine! Smart to practice the crying now so you'll be ready for the new, sensitive you when you're on ADT. Who knew you could cry when driving just because you'd become terrified that you were going to move on the radiation table! Back when this all started I got buPROPion (Wellbutrin XL) before I really felt I needed it and I'm getting through this. Hang in! 59 sucks too!
