First PSA test after radiation for intact prostate?

Thanks for all the detail.

R/O @ Mayo PHX told me they would follow starting 3 months after the proton beam treatment. But I just found an appointment for it just over 2 months after - haven't had a chance to talk with them yet but will call tomorrow. I did not get any more info on the PSA following from the R/O.

I got no notice of the upcoming appointment - it just appeared in the portal - one for a blood test, one for a followup with a PA. I found it because I did get an email about a new financial estimate, and that got me looking.

Weird that the IT system didn't notify me of new appointments, one of which is just 2 1/2 weeks out (conflicting with another unrelated Mayo appt).

@rotate, that is odd that you did not get a notification for your upcoming appointment. Please check your spam folder to make sure it didn't go there erroneously. Please let the scheduler know a) that you did not get a notification and b) that there is a conflict with another Mayo appointment. They should be able to help get that fixed so that you can be sure to be notified in the future and to untangle the double-booked appointments.
