I hope you will get to talk to others here who have also seen their PSA rise following treatment. In the meantime, don't hesitate to mention it and to ask your medical team for advice on this. Our nurses are also available if you want to talk things through with them on this free number 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
Like you I was diagnosed with prostate cancer with a psa of 70 about six years ago. I also had two years on hormone therapy and 37 radiotherapy sessions, and my psa came down after treatment had eneded to 0.01 Now four years after all treatment has ended my psa is slowly rising, Six months ago it was 1.4 but a few weeks ago it had for some reason come down to 0.91 but the overall trend is upwards as my oncologist said it would. He doesnt expect it to rise to more than 3.5
Hope your team are able to bring this back down again. Please let us know how you get on. Sending best wishes your way, Brian.
