PSA READING

SOMEWHERE IN THE KAROO
Virtually straight after my last post I decided to pop across for an impromptu PSA test to check that i''m going in the right direction (i.e. down).
The last time i did this was at my 6 week check-up with my urologist (my only contact with anyone in this regard since the op).
I had been surprised,and absolutely thrilled to report that,after 6 weeks it has receded beyond all expectations to 3,66 (from 10,33) .
I realised that i could not expect a similar plunge in the reading at this point as the rate of decline is naturally alogarithmic (i.e. opposite to logarithmic) as the strength of radiation declines.
I'm presently at around 1/8th of the original strength after almost 3 half lives.
Well,..........to get back to the original subject,it appears that my reading is now a mere 0,75!!!
I'm ecstatic as it seems that i can expect an ultimate reading after 18 months then of below 0,5,possibly less.
This is wonderful news and far beyond my expectations!
