I had RP 5 years ago and my lab always reported my psa as <.1. 2 months ago I had my annual psa at the same lab and it came back as .1. That concerned me as apparently the AUA considers .1 detectable. So contacted my doctor and requested an USPSA. That came back as .128. 1 months ago later my reading was virtually the same. So starting Early Salvage Therapy in 20?sessions with no ADT. Had a Decipher test and it came back as .56, intermediate aggressive and an ArteraAI test that came back with a low score suggesting that ADT is probably not all that beneficial at this time. Research shows that Early Salvage Radiation before the PSA goes over .2 is statistically better than waiting for possibly a total cure!?? You never know but I’m playing the odds!!! Time will tell.

@jamie1957 Have tou made an appointment with a radiologist at a center of excellence to get an opinion? An oncologist would even be better. Urologists are pretty much out of the game once the prostate has been cut out.
