Had prostate removed 2 years ago zero PSA now PSA 0.1 Dr wants to do r

My PSA went from threshold (0.05) to 0.13 in 10 months; I was expecting to talk to my RO about a PSMA, ADT & perhaps radiation to the prostate bed. This week my PSA dropped to 0.08 and now we're going to wait another 3 months for the next PSA test. (BTW: G8 in 10% prostate, pT3a pN0, prostatectomy Nov 2018).
It will be interesting to hear how your RO proceeds, given that it was just 2yrs to BCR.

Not sure who you were asking for information. You should use the reply option if you want an answer from a specific person.
3 1/2 years after my prostatectomy, I had a reoccurrence. Salvage radiation was done and it reoccurred 2 1/2 years later. G 4+3 but also BRCA2 . 15 years since RP.
Unfortunately, there is no standard for this situation. Had one guy come to a meeting who was 30 years following his prostatectomy before he had reoccurrence. Another person had 20 years between RP and reoccurrence..
A higher percentage of people have no reoccurrence.
