So,my last post was made in January 2019....almost 3 years after brachytherapy.At that point my PSA reading had dropped to 0,01,
After brachy one still has a prostate and any reading below 0,5 would represent an outstanding result.
I didn't bother to have the prerequisite annual PSA test for around 3 years thereafter.till 2022,where the result was unchanged at 0,01......big sigh of relief!
This week (September 2025) I decided to get some bloods, including cholesterol/tryglyseride/kidney etc. All 100% still,at the tender age of 72.
The most surprising,....and possibly the best news....PSA virtually imperceptible at 0,007.
Everything still working 💪 pretty well,with the only "side effect" being the need to wake once or twice per night for a pee.
A bit of a ballache but I'll take it with open arms. When first diagnosed in 2014.....11 5 years ago, my 1st reaction was that I'd most probably be history by now.....I'm a lucky bugger!
Looks like my kids might be waiting a little longer for that inheritance ?
This will definitely be my last post on this particular blog .
