vancouverislandhiker,
the contrast agent pylarify approved in 2021 has special affinity for PSA. Tell your oncologist to requisition a PSMA PET scan for you. You shouldn't endure this anxiety.

Gently , thanks for your help. I never knew this about this contrast agent. . I wonder if we use that in Canada ? I am goign to ask about this. Will the PSMA PET work if we are under 0.4 ? I was at 0.11 last time down from 0.14 . I did a blood test yesterday for PSA but too much anxiety to open the darn Lab web site , I dont know what I will do if it over 0.14 . Its only 830 am here on the West yet - so I will . I will have another coffee and open it . IF The PSMA works at 0.14 I should get in line for one, as I hear there is a month or more wait if its not an "immediate" need . Thanks Gently , for caring , James
