Some unsolicited advice: while you're deservedly celebrating these great numbers 🎉, don't forget to celebrate other things in your lives as well.
Next week will be my 20th round of quarterly PSA and bloodwork since I was diagnosed in 2021. It's early days still for you guys, but this monitoring thing is a marathon, not a sprint.
In due time, you will want your life *not* to centre around waiting for the next test result, and a little early practice now couldn't hurt.

Thanks North for words of wisdom : ))) !
Luckily it is only me whose mood is effected by "results" ; ) - my husband is ALWAYS in great mood and always ready to celebrate and has a great ability to compartmentalize problems : ))). He is still immersed in his creative businesses, does many sports, goes out with me everywhere and we snuggle and have fun at night.
But, alas, we humans can not choose what we feel or how we react 😉, so beside me having a lobotomy I can not feel any other way . I do not even mind at all lol - as long as my husband has adequate care and has good results, I am VERY happy - other things are really of not much importance for me.
Yes, every day that we live and are together is a cause of celebration 👍, but when bad results come there is absolutely NO reason for me to be happy - I would actually find it to be unnatural reaction. for me (or anybody really) .
BTW, I am in this "mood" only here ; ). "At home" I live full and active life ("in between" scans, results and treatments ). As our Jeff @jeffmarc often says " Nobody would guess" lol ; ).
