PSA result this - relief continues

Sounds excellent, wishing you a good spring/summer! 

If you skim my Profile you'll understand why I would urge 6 months between psa checks absolutely minimum. If I'd known what I do now I'd have gone for 3 months!

Continuing good luck, Dave 

Hello Worriedwife 

Brilliant result and long may it continue.

We've travelled this journey together now for 4 years - it feels like iv'e known you a lifetime, we have had some great results, some very sad moments and lost some great friends and even been through doughnut gate - but we are both still here!

Thank you for the support you have provided to me - and everyone else on the Community in those 4 years - your posts have helped countless Community members through some very hard times. Thank you.

I wish you a happy, worry free 6 months.

Kind regards - Brian.

Hello Dave - I’ve just looked at your profile. I’m so sorry to read the disappointing news you have received. I think when they say ‘ tension to cure’, in sheer desperation we grab on to the word ‘cure’ without having the chances of recurrence explained to us - ie there are no guarantees in this darned journey we are all taking. It was wuitr some months after embarking on RT/HT that I stumbled on the word ‘recurrence’! My heart sank and I still get anxious at PSA testing time.

i do hope that your own prospects are more positive now than your profile suggests? I also wish you all the best for the future 

Thank you. I think I was pretty realistic about likelihood of recurrence given original Gleason, but I wasn't counting on lack of any effective monitoring by GP. Why this task is outsourced to amateurs I know not!

Clear to me that psa very likely irrelevant in my case so at least I don't worry too much about that!

I'm OK on decapeptyl and darolutamide other than some tiredness and muscle ache. Not expecting a long respite. 

Good luck to you two, D.
