I’m with kujhawk. Get the best imaging you can as soon as you can. I was fortunate enough to get the PSMA Gallium68 scan at PSA 0.10 and 4 cancerous lymph nodes were found. I got radiation and went on Nubeqa. Latest PSA <0.008. Good scans lead the treatment. Don’t treat blindly. If you can, get an opinion from Dr. Kwon at Mayo. He’s aggressive. I love his attitude.

I need to make a correction. I was scanned at UCLA when my PSA had risen to 1.0 not 0.10. Sorry for the error.

Hi, thank you for your response. A PSMA Pet scan is going to be ordered once insurance approves. PSA now 0.24 and Radiation Oncologist (met today) suggested 39 Radiation Treatments. Once the PSMA results in, would like to go to the Mayo for second opinion. How did you do with Radiation Treatments? Thank you!
