Also I had a scan with contrast after surgery about a month or two told I was cancer free

Now that you've had 2 PSA increases in a row your Doctor will probably order a PSMA pet scan. If they don't see anything in this scan they'll probably order SRT to the prostate bed and possibly the pelvic lymph nodes. ADT probably not necessary, but depends maybe on your surgery pathology report. Sorry to hear about your rise in PSA. I would definitely request another PSA a month from your last test
