Two and a half years out of surgery . . .

Greeting friends and followers of this blog . . . 


I wanted to finally get around to updating everyone.  I finally hit a small milestone in that my follow-up appointment schedule is now every six months instead of three months.


My last PSA, taken in March, remained at near non-detectable levels; <0.05 .


Though my medical and radiation oncologists are very pleased with this, the fact that my cancer was as aggressive and advanced as it was at the time of my surgery, they are still concerned about and watching closely for any signs of recurrence.


I will probably have another bone scan and MRI series done this fall to see if there are any sign of growth regardless of what the PSA level may be at that time.


Once again, I thank you all for your support and prayers through out these couple of years.
