Last PSA Number Before Cancer Diagnosis?

It will be three years in September since I was diagnosed. My PCP had me go in for biopsy because my PSA was bouncing up and down for a couple of years. Needless to say what a shock. The last PSA before diagnosis was 8.
Later I was classed Gleason 4+3/7 intermediate.
I ended up having hi beam Proton radiation with 3 shots of ADT. Needless to say, I am having issues with the side effects from the hormone shots.
But at my last checkup, my surgeon informed me that I had the lowest PSA number ever of all the patients in the practice.

Great news you got.

I had proton radiation also but no hormore treatment. My PSA at 2.5 years was .10
It was originally at 3.75. But like you my PCP did not like climbing PSA numbers over the years and referred me to a urologist.
