Hey guys, I'm kind of quiet on here but I "lurk" quite a bit. Just wanted to put out there I had my second "non-detectable" PSA test last week, and the doc doesn't need me to come back for a year. I think that's a good sign?

Great report Tex .
Question, not to put a damper on it, because undetectable is undetectable.....

I find it interesting that with a G8, your doc said one year for follow up, even with your clean pathology. Is it the fact that you are T1c, so only cancer on one side?
I am a G7(3+4), with clean path, my surgeon has me testing every three months for one year, then if still up undetectable, I go to every six months. So just curious,

Happy New Year, everyone. Pratoman, I'm not sure (because I didn't ask, frankly) why he bumped it to 12 months to come back. Maybe I'll call and verify that's what he wants to do? I don't mind giving up a little blood if I need to. Oh, and my signature was wrong on the grading - it's actually a T2c, not a T1c. Thanks for asking the question!
