I just read:

"– A temporary PSA “bump” may be detected 1-2 months post-op before declining to undetectable levels. This is thought to be due to release of PSA from disrupted prostate cells during surgery."

Technically I'm still undetectable but hopefully it continues to drop. I see a lot of guys on here with 0.01, being a 0.07 seems high comparatively. So 🤞

I can completely understand your "lump", I have several : /. I am so happy to hear that it actually does not mean anything in early recovery period and it is good to know about that so thanks for posting the link : ).
May your PSA level completely disappear in following weeks : ) and than big celebration will be in order !!! How will you celebrate ; ) ? Or you will just open nice bottle of wine and relax watching a sunset ? Sometimes enjoying the simplest things is the best celebration of all : ))).
