My PSA was .370 on January 21/22. On Feb 16/22 I was given Bicalutamide pills (Casodex) for 30 days and I had my first Zoladex injection on March 16/22 and my PSA was undetectable on April 22/22. So ones PSA drops very quickly. I started Salvage Radiation (SRT) on June 9/22 and had second Zoladex injection on June 16/22. My first PSA post SRT was in November/22 at < .008 and my Testosterone reading was < .2 (normal range would be 8.4 - 28.8). As of December 8/23 my PSA continues to be undetectable and my Testosterone level remains extremely low at .9 however I will live with the extremely low Testosterone level if my PSA remains undetectable.
