That Time Again

Well the results are in again!

I received the results of my PSA level a several weeks ago, but have been too busy/pre-occupied to post them! I decided that it was time to post the results.


Firstly to recap; we were hoping for a PSA result that was very close to zero. Such a result would mean that I would continue the Zoladex implant for a further period - two to three years is recommended - without having to re-introduce the Androcur and associated side affects.

PSA level

The normal range of PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) in an adult male aged 50-60 years, is 0 to 3.5ng/ml. Remember, I started this battle against cancer with a PSA of 84.8ng/ml just 13 months ago!!!

My previous test (August 2008) showed a level of 0.66ng/ml, a negligible amount of PSA and an excellent result! Well the result this time the result was even better!

My PSA was only 0.3ng/ml less than half the previous result!!


This is a huge 'shot in the arm' in regard to my quest for a complete cure!! These tests will be repeated in late February and I expect a similar result.
