Rising PSA years after radical prostatectomy

Your PSA scores since the surgery have remained very low.
After 4 years its worth getting a Pet PSMA scan which picks up any possible cells that may have cancer.
This is via absorption of isotopes which show up in a different color.
I had the prostate removed in Sept 2018 but the PSA rose rapidly and reached 5.17 recently.
I had a few sessions of radio therapy to treat lymph nodes that showed up on the scans.
Your situation looks excellent but take the Psma pet scan to be at ease

Hi, why only a few radiation treatments. Imaging didn't find recurrence in prostate bed?
