Hi PIL1962 and welcome to the forum, No personal experience, but a few friends have had a prostatectomy followed by biochemical recurrence, which happens to 30% of guys who have their prostate removed. As the lowest your Gleason score got to was undetectable this is called the nadir and as your consultant has said a rise of 0.2 above your nadir usually calls for treatment. as you are having regular checks and your PSA is rising, though still very low, suggests there are just a few cancer cells left behind after surgery which was the case with my friends who all  had radiotherapy RT and although they have had RT within the last 7 years, results have been excellent for them all. best wishes.
