Great news!  If I recall correcly, it is the lowest PSA you have ever
recorded.  And, I'm thinking it is probably the lowest possible with the
assay your lab used.  Was there, by any chance, a "<" symbol in front of it?

Steve, you are right it is the lowest Psa. Regarding the lab: it reads 0,04
without any additional sign or symbol.,

Well, then I pray your next one reads, "<0.04".  There is no better place to
nadir.  However, you have done very well to get it below 0.10!  It is very
promising.
