It would appear that you have had recurrence like 30%-40% of men who have a RP. You should see your urologist or oncologist ASAP as it appears that the cancer has returned and you need to take action.

I assume your Urologist is running your tests and you've been happy with his treatment over the years. If that's the case he should guide you with your next course of action. Good Luck with everything.

Glennh23: Time for Urologist/Oncolgist consult; agree with gkm and others responding to you.
Your PSA is in the investigate/treatment zone.
Sorry. Best to you, and all.
