Rising PSA years after radical prostatectomy

Thanks for the inputs. I had surgery two years ago. My PSA has been tested every three months. So far it’s been undetectable. However, I know I need to continue with testing and monitoring. In my case, cancer was found in a lymph node after surgery. (Ugh) I chose quality of life, not quantity. (No radiation or shots.) Starting next month, I’ll get my PSA tested every six months. I’m praying it remains undetectable.
Thanks again for everyone’s feedback! Jerry

Sounds like you are doing great. Congrats. Why not get tested every 4 months? That's what I requested when the doctor said I could extend to 6 months. Gives me a little more piece of mind and only is one more test a year.
