Your PSA is pretty high for the amount of time after your radiation. I have heard from people that took three years to get down to the minimum, That is not the usual, but it happens.

Your PSA free is quite high risk since it should be above 25%. The thing is you’ve written 7L Was that a typo. The L. doesn’t seem to belong. I assume you mean 7%.

If it were me, I would want a PSMA PET scan to find out what’s going on. I might wait till the next PSA test, but with A PSA of three you should be able to get good results from a pet test.

I think it would make sense to get a second opinion on what’s going on. The doctor does not appear to be aggressive enough with what appears to be problems. If you mention where you live, I might be able to point you to a doctor that’s in your area and highly respected.
