one month after radical prostatectomy, my PSA is 0,07.
My doctor says it is OK: do you have something to add?

Looks OK.  At one month, it's possible there is still some residual PSA
in your bloodstream.  The first PSA is often taken at six weeks or more
just for that reason.

many thanks Dave, what you have added made me feeling much better: by the
precision of your answer do I argue that I am corresponding with a doctor?
Many thaks anyway

No doctor, just a veteran of our common ordeal.

I had my first PSA 4 weeks after the RP.

Colophony, I think you're doing great.

Keep it up buddy.  :-)

One month?  That's fantastic!
