Has anyone had the PSMA-PET scan? Was cancer found?

Just to update my post.

On Nov. 28th I had my second PSMA/PET scan at the University of Washington. My PSA on 10/14/2022 was 1.40.

The short, cryptic text message from my oncologist was in part,

"The scan showed no evidence of disease".

He went on to add that he is recommending that I begin treatment of the pelvis region for 8 1/2 (eight and a half) weeks.

I'm waiting for an appointment and/or phone call to answer multiple questions.

Here''s some of the questions:
Why eight and a half weeks?
Is that radiation or ???
His message doesn't use the term "radiation".
Why isn't the PSMA scan finding the cancer location?

Hopefully I will be able to ask my Doctor the above questions.

Thanks in advance.
