  • Hi Billygoat,

    Thank for posting your story on here as it may give hope to others. That is a fantastic drop in your psa.I know you may be suffering side effects from the hormones but I looked at itas a pricw owrth paying for the result I had. 

    I thought mine was good, down from 70 when diagnosed to 0.01 12 weekafter radiotherapy finnished and was on hormone therapy for two yearsbut your is an incredibal drop well done to you.

    I only have blood tests every six months now. In the years since I had the treatment, my psa has risen slightly just as the specialist said it would but its still very low.

    Take care my friend, best wishes and congratulations, Brian.
