8 yrs post Robotic Prostatectomy , clean margins

Hi, PSA rising slowly last few yrs. Highest .20 down to .14 during 2022. Now .24 four months after .14. Going for a repeat as M.D ruling out error. I've been in the hands of my Urologist for these 8 yrs. Researching for a Medical Oncologist. Any suggestions if PSA is accurate? My medical center has an affiliation with MSK in N.Y. Thanks fir any suggestions

Hi @bettwils16, this is a question that several have asked and had answered in the Prostate Cancer group. For that reason I moved your message to this existing discussion:

I did this so you can read the previous posts and connect with others to ask questions.

PSA tests can have fluctuations, so I’m encouraged that your urologist is sending you to be retested to see if the .24 is an anomaly.

You mention that you are looking for a new medical oncologist. Might Mayo Clinic be an option for you?
