Back in 2006 I was diagnosed with Prostate cancer with a PSA of 17, treatment was 20 sessions of radiotherapy followed by Zoladex implant every 3 months for 3 years, my PSA then dropped to 0.10. There it remained until 2011 when it went up to 0.40.

From then until 2018 it varied between 0.40 and 0.71, but since then every test has shown a slight increase:

15th June 2018 PSA@0.59

24th Dec 2018 PSA@0.81

11th July 2019 PSA@0.71

3rd Dec 2019 PSA@0.71

8th Sept 2020 PSA@0.75

12th March 2021 PSA@0.84

16th Sept 2021 PSA@0.94

15th March 2022 PSA@1.15

8th Sept 2022 PSA@1.47

24th March 2023 PSA@2.17

24th June 2023 PSA@2.57

Latest test a few days ago was 5.36, have also noticed over the past 6 months that I have been having hot flushes, could the two be linked?
