@jc76 JC, his last test was 0.21, which is salvage signal.

@heavyphil Thanks for your comments. Originally my Gleason score was 3+ 4.
I’m the patient who mention PSA climbed slowly and realize the numbers are low.
.02 .04 .07 .15 .21 then then back a fraction to .18
Trying to understand the numbers and what is Happening.. thus went to surgeon who performed RP robotically 2 years ago
He saw my #’s creep up
and asked me to visit his modality clinic.
Instead went to my RO for consultation and compared 2 pathology reports almost 2 yrs apart.
2nd report from PMSA was thoroughly discused
and like 2 yrs ago the RO was in favor of active surveillance and wait and see next PSA in 90 days for another follow up
Appreciate everyone that chimed in and it’s concerning but not alarming. Please comment
How do you feel about my experience, many thanks !
Met with RO

It's the 0 that throws me. I am not familiar with ultra sensitive tests. I have the traditional PSA as had radiation not RP. They use below >1 for undetectable and don't list numbers below that at least at Mayo Jacksonville unless you have the ultra sensitive test.
So he had the ultra sensitive test.
