My psa went from .07 in December 2025 to .128 in May of 2026. My RO from a COE that based on my original Gleason of 3+4 and the fact that it took 5 years to get to .128 that I could wait until it got to .2 or even .5 before Radiatikn treatment but I insisted on Early Salcage Radiation (which is when the psa is between .1 and .2). I’ve read that the results of a cure are higher when Radiation is performed before the psa gets to .2!

I have been told by my RO at KUMC that is a center of excellence for PC that starting salvage radiation after rising to .1 is their standard.

Agreed. Recent studies and extensive research seem to conclude the earlier, the better when it comes to salvage radiation. Makes sense to attempt to catch it before it has time to spread.
Thanks for your reply.
