Had RRP done last June 17th at Memorial Sloane Kettering Cancer Center in
NYC - Dr. Scardino.

After my last PSA 3 months ago I was getting a bit nervous, as it was
increasing. Just got the call from my uro's office:

1st PSA post-RRP - 0.00
2nd PSA post-RRP - 0.01
3rd PSA post-RRP - 0.03
4th PSA post-RRP - 0.00 - Woo Hoo!!!!

I will now get tested every 6 months.....

I'll second the "Woo Hoo".

Though, at your age, I'd be a bit nervous getting away from 3-month PSA
checks for awhile.

Congratulations !!!!!

I just had my 30 month PSA. My doc doesn't use the ultra sensitive test,
but my psa has been undetectable ever since.
