Puzzling about PSA rise 7 years after prostatectomy

@surftohealth88 I'll just add that thresholds are different after treatment. If your prostate is removed or radiated, and you're _still_ seeing a PSA ≥ 0.2, then it warrants further investigation, especially if you're also on ADT.
(It might not be anything serious, of course, but they need to monitor you closely.)

There could be people here who are reading and do not know that threshold is different for RP and RT patients. I was concentrating on answering to this particular patient who had RARP , but it is wise to always consider having new members here.
