Hi y’all

Just had a call from my Nurse for this seasons PSA

Short story long, RP in 2018 Gleason 4 plus 3, clear margins, PSA undetectable until Aug 2019

Since then gentle rises and falls:

Feb 2025. 0.12

Aug 2025. 0.09

Feb 2026. 0.14

Obviously concerned at an overall upward trend, slowly over the last 5 years

I suppose I’m reaching out for insight from others who have similar numbers.

Although I’m in no danger, it feels like a Recurrence about to happen

Ta in advance

Hi Anton

I'm always following these numbers but I don't think u have a problem.

A bit up and down perhaps but hardly a big rise over the one year.

As long as it doesn't continue an upward trend then all ok, good that you are having PSA every 6 months.

You are better than me , mine is at .26 although that is the lowest its been.

All the best

I think any change in the numbers causes us to worry. My husband gets his PSA results tomorrow and I feel so anxious and I don't know why because they have been stable since he ended his chemo in November 23.
