We are doing our best to find out best approach. My husband has a urologist who has scheduled him for RP surgery mid November. We would really like a psma scan first and at our request, he has sent in a referral for psma pet scan testing in Vancouver. Problem appears to be that the wait list is longer than the time we have before surgery. Sigh. We are going to contact them early this week to see if there is a cancellation list or anything helpful. We don’t feel comfortable bumping surgery back because of the mri report which was suspicious of prostate capsule disruption, not to mention also pelvic lymphadenopathy (though we realize that may have other sources). We are willing to travel. We just don’t have info on the various Mayo Clinic wait times for psma testing as if they all have longer wait times than Vancouver then won’t be much help. We would be paying out of pocket for psma pet scan in USA however also would be doing so in Vancouver as psma pet scans are not yet mainstream standard of care (not covered by provincial insurance). I think I will see if I can reach any of the Mayo Clinic’s next week to see if can get further info. though not sure if can get that info without first having a general appointment which is tough when not local. Will see . . .
