Well, PSA results are back and it's up again as expected, now at 3.80.
Further blood tests ordered to test my testosterone (I can tell them it's back without a test ) and liver and kidney function and a PSMA PET Scan is being ordered.
I will keep you all updated - I know now after 3.5 years why they call this a "journey"
Thank you all for your comments and good wishes and continued support across the entire Community.

Hi Brian,
Whilst not totally unexpected it will no doubt have been a bit of a disappointment for you & Mrs Millibob (Lorraine) to receive this news. I'm 100% sure though that you will both take this in your stride & face up to this in the same manner you have done in the past. You have a fantastic medical team behind you & I wish you all the best. Hopefully the date of the next scan will soon be winging it's way to you so you can book your next trip to the sun.
My only concern now is that your topic heading Que Sara Sara has now put an earworm in my head & I can't stop seeing Doris Day singing this... aaaagh .
Best Wishes
Brian
Wishing you all the very best Brian in your ongoing 'journey.' Echo the sentiments of all the many comments.
On a football note pretty sure you will be at the LNER stadium on Tuesday and if you win you will be most certainly be singing the football version of 'Que Sera Sera'........... "we're going to Wembelee, Que Sera Sera."
. The Latics deserve some succes.
Best wishes, Graham.
Thank you everyone who replied yesterday (Sunday) - I had a "day off", walk in the morning, a couple of pints on the way back and a family BBQ in the afternoon / early evening - it's times like that you really do appreciate life and your family.
Sunday evening after everyone had gone home (they even washed up!!) Lorraine and I had an "in depth" chat about all the what if's - the answer was the well used phrase - "Stronger Together" - and it's our 46th wedding anniversary today too!!
Buzzers - my song of choice at the moment is CHUMBAWAMBA - "I get knocked down, but I get up again, You're never going to keep me down" - get that one going in your head - .
BoroG Sadly I won't be at York on Tuesday - we have 1500 tickets between 4000 season ticket holders - so it's the big screen at Boundary Park for me Tuesday night - so I will be singing yes - probably "Remember Bosworth!!
Thanks again everyone - your support is amazing - thank you.
Kind Regards - Brian.
