Dear Jim,
I hope that you will hear from other posters on the message board soon. The follow up of the PSA after treatment can come with its own complexities and can be confusing in trying to interpret the significance of the result.
I would suggest that you call us on the National Cancer Helpline 1800 200 700 our lines are open from 9am to 7pm Monday to Thursday and 5pm on Friday where we may be able to advise you further.
Kind regards,
Cancer Information Services Nurse
