Had 13 pelvic nodes removed with RLP in July at Mayo Jax. All negative. Had first post op PSA yesterday. Hallelujah! < .1. Surgeon termed this “undetectable!” Will continue PSA’s at three month intervals. Feeling very blessed.

Great news! I too had 13 nodes removed at Mayo Jax but in Sept. They were negative. My gleason was upgraded after surgery to 4+3. Margins clear. My first psa is in Dec. Praying for undetectable! I dont think I have any side effects from the node removal. I was also 100% continent after catheter removal. I feel very blessed too!
