After 43 Radation treatments back in June I finally got my first Psa score it was 0.9 My oncologist told me he normally has patients come back every 3 months in the begging but because of the low score and how fast it dropped he will see me every 6 months to start.

Congratulations!

My doc said about the same thing after my IMRT, first test was three months post treatment and then we went to a six month schedule.

Another year or two of that and I'll be switched to an annual test.

soxx,
That is a really great initial drop. May all your PSA scores continue to drop until it settles down.

Regards,
Kris
