Edit: I meant to type <0.02 PSA. Anything below 0.02 is considered 0.02.
I got up to 18.4 right before surgery, so my surgeon was very worried.
Glad to hear it.
Best of luck.

Damn, mang, the PSA scale my doc uses is 0.00 - 4.00, and you hit 18.4? Congrats on those post-op numbers. (I was at 0.03 on my last blood board in January. They took out five polyps after my last scoping in ‘15.)
You will very likely need some follow up radiation, but you are doing great so far.
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer with 8 bone mets 5.5 years ago. There is no cure, but I am doing extremely well on the second level Androgen Depravation Therapy drug Xtandi. PSA has been 0.0 for the past 12 months.
Dude, stay on top of that.
