Hi North,
So happy for you to have had those positive PSA and other labs as well as the MRI (radiologist's neglect excepted). Perhaps your oncologist could have a flag put in your file for subsequent MRI readings to stipulate that a comparison be made to the previous MRIs and bone scans. No reason for them not to do so.

I am happy for you and, selfishly, for all of us who will continue to be blessed by your thoughts, perspectives and positive presence on MCC.
Bill

Thanks! I'm not out of the woods yet — I see the oncologist tomorrow afternoon — but I'm feeling reasonably confident (by all definitions of "reasonably"). If some catastrophic is happening, well (as with most forum members), it wouldn't be my first rodeo: I know that

a) preparing yourself for the possibility of bad news by worrying doesn't actually help if/when it happens (though it's only natural), and

b) if it does become active again, I've seen that I have access to the healthcare, support network, and personal resilience to cope.
