Hi. I'm new here.

I had my prostate gland removed in April 2016. I have had three 'undetectable' PSA readings since then, followed by a 0.08 reading this last time.

Not enormous, but one hell of a shock.

I am just sharing this to see what other people's experiences are. And what options are there, dependent on my next reading next month.

Had my latest psa results, after 7 years my psa level was >0.01. I am now on 5 years of 1 year surveillance, so 4 years to go.
