Rise in PSA

I have not been around for a long time due to a Heart Attack and Several small Strokes (TIA's).  I have a upcoming appointment with my Cardiologist and I was reviewing the blood test he had done.  For some reason he did a PSA, which had been around 0.02 or 0.03.  It is now 0.07 and this seems to be a significant rise.  Has anyone had this and is it a indication that the cancer may returning?  Because of the time since my operation I don't see the Oncologist but every Six months.  Should I call Him?

As always thank all of you!

Thanks aus. Yes it was done by the same lab.  Do you know of a site that gives you info on increase in PSA, Post Operative?
