Thanks for your response. I talked to Mayo Clinic Urology but they said they won't see me if my PSA is less than 0.4, and it currently is at 0.2. I'm currently working with an Oncologist at another Cancer Center. I was thinking it would be helpful to go to Mayo and get a Choline 11 scan and a second opinion from a Mayo Oncologist. Does anyone know if Mayo Oncology uses Choline 11 scans?

Mayo Rochester has offered these scans for years. My husband has had many Choline 11 PET scans, ordered by Dr. Kwon, starting in 2011 and continuing to the present time. I am sure this scan can be ordered by any appropriate provider at Mayo. I believe that Mayo is also one of the few places that produces its own Choline 11 for clinical use.
It is frustrating that your PSA is too low for you to be seen soon, but keeping in mind that having a too-low PSA also has many advantages. 🙂
