From the time I decided on proton radiation (in late 2020), we’ve done full bloodwork (PSA, T, CBC, & CMP) at every blood test to this very day. (That’s been 20 PSA tests to date.) I get my results within an hour of completing the blood draw.

This was something that we discussed and agreed to during treatment planning. (All you probably have to do have T included in your blood test is to ask for it.)

@brianjarvis
You should look into getting regular

ALT test for liver function
creatinine and calculated glomerular filtration rate to test kidney function

I’ve been getting them for eight years every month.
