I got the results of my 16-week PSA today - "less than 0.1, undetectable"!

8-week check was "less than 0.04 undetectable".

The second check was at a different lab that only reports above 0.1, anything lower is simply "less than 0.1".

Pre-op:
PSA - 5.5
Gleason 6 (3+3)
PNI

Post-op:
Gleason 7 (4+3)
Staging - T3a
Extension outside the capsule on one side

I feel fortunate and thankful.
