Did you start radiation immediately or wait until PSA was 0.2 ng/ml

All I can say is that you have positive margins; you STILL have documented prostate cancer inside you, regardless of the surgery. What good was it if your surgeon couldn’t get it all?
OK, so you had a gross debulking of the tumor nidus, and a clear picture of what’s going on based on your surgical pathology report…excellent.
Your surgeon is completely useless to you now as a source of treatment. Time to consult an RO to treat the cancer still inside you before it gets worse.
If you are comfortable with waiting for the magical 0.2 PSA - mostly used in cases where the surgeon knows he ‘got it all’ - go ahead. Me? I’d be running…

Yes, we are trying to make app with RO at least, we shell see if that will be before December, knowing waiting period we had here from the beginning. We are calling another place but it is so hard to get info as outsider - like we have to "transfer" care to get information of how things are done. Some days I feel like I am a main protagonist in a Kafka novel 😵💫...
