Bullseye

First post-salvage radiation PSA test came back today. Zero point one. That's a great score in my situation. I'm probably, hopefully, still on a downward curve, so maybe the next PSA will be less than zero point one, or "undetectable" on the standard PSA test. I was dreading the digital rectal exam (DRE) because of the proctitis, but it didn't hurt at all and there was no sign of blood, which means to me that the proctitis is just about gone.

The doctor said he would have been happy even if the score was 0.3.

This is a great day.
