Hello Ulf (Ulfhbg) 

Well that's GREAT NEWS. and to think you were worrying about your results.

Nothing to worry about there - only things to CELEBRATE..

Best wishes - Brian 

Hi !

Thanks Brian and of course wonderful news 

Well, I suppose that stress and to be anxious will always follow us in time for test if the beast is still there and I think you and all of us recognize this for the rest of our life.

Anyway, thanks my friend 

Best wishes - Ulf

Great news Ulf so  relax and CELEBRATE.

Wow! I’ve just read your bio again and there’s no wonder it is <0.1.  I wouldn’t be surprised if it was <0.01 after your treatment regime.  Basically, you threw everything in the oncologist’s armoury at it .    After you decided to back up your internal HDR brachytherapy with the external radiotherapy and the systemic therapy, the cancer really didn’t stand a chance. I would expect very low PSA readings for many years to come!

Brilliant.

I am hoping I can get the same results.

Celebrate and enjoy.

Hi Alwayshope!

Thanks and I’m allowing myself to really relax and be positive and it’s so great to be able to share this with you fantastic people because I feel that everybody really enjoys good news in this battle against the prostate cancer beast

Anyway, thank you, hug your husband and keep fighting.

Best wishes - Ulf

Hi Alpine Wanderer !

Thanks for your wonderful words of confidence and all I can say is that its extremly relaxing to have the result and I’ve promised my family and close ones that I start to relax and enjoy the positive result (until the next 3-month test)

Anyway, thanks and it’s really extra nice to be able to share good news within this amazing community with all you amazing people 

There is not only one road in fighting this cancer beast and hopefully I can provide people here in this community that there are always possibilities to try new steps.

Best wishes - Ulf

Hi mstev2 !

Thanks my friend and me and the family will enjoy and I will start to relax (but not bring my guard down) 

I’m here supporting you in your fight if and when you need it as are all the other fantastic people in this forum.

One idea to take with you to your MO / medical team is to have a discussion with them about adding Abiraterone and Prednisolone to your treatment, perhaps in time for your radiation. Just a thought

I’m not saying it will be easier with side effect but there are many ongoing studies where locally advanced patients like us is on 3 year hormone therapy, 2 year Abiraterone and external so, could be something to check up my friend

Thanks again and all my best wishes - Ulf
