Post prostatectomy: What do rising PSA levels mean?

I appreciate it, Kujhawk. I was just able to access my old lab results, going back to 2017, which I list below.
I am pretty sure that the last one came out of a different lab (based on the other blood results). The one I just got this month, 0.04, is also from a new lab, as I have moved to a new city. My worry is that if the 0.00 was accurate up to 2 decimal places, then the 0.04 would indicate a jump. I am hoping that the 0.00 is just their way of saying "undetectable" but that it is not actually accurate through 2 decimal places.
9/2017 < .1
4/2018 < .1
10/2018 < .1
4/2019 < .1
10/2019 < .1
11/2020 < .1
8/2021 0.00 (looks like a different lab)
8/2022 0.04 (different doctor and different lab)

It appears you were checked at .1 for quite some time.....and there did not seem to be a concern (as far as I know).....now you are at .04 and that is less than .1 ......if you are concerned and it appears you are...,I would have another test shortly and see the results. Was the Dr. concerned about the change from .1 to 0.00 and then up to .04 and is your Dr. a Urologist....if not, maybe he would refer you to one.
