TJ - your situation is very similar to mine- darn similar . I got salvage radiation , 2 years after my operation- it worked well . Dropped me back from post op of 0.14 , to 0.031 almost immediately . No ADT unless ABSOLUTELY needed , in my opinion and that of my RO . My URO was is full agreement of no ADT and just 22 sessions of light radiation . It seemed to work for me . Both say I have now health prostate cells in the area producing small amounts of PSA - they are not worried about it . I elected to get 3 month PSA tests , my Urologist said yearly now is good , but is OK with every 3 months if it will calm my anxiety . Hope this helps

I’m curious. After your surgery, did your PSA stay consistent around 0.14? If so, what was the reason for waiting two years before starting salvage radiation? During that time, did your PSA remain stable or did it fluctuate?
