Follow Up

I just returned from an appointment with my urologist/oncologist. He said that he was happy that my PSA was at zero. I was glad I did not need another hormone injection! I continue to get hot flashes from them.

I was told if I do not start producing testosterone on my own within 7 months, I will need testosterone injections, as without it, though it is good at keeping the cancer in check, the lack of testosterone could result in diabetes or heart disease!

He said I should get my PSA and testosterone tested again in 3 months. I am thankful it went as well as it did!

PSA

I just got the results of my latest PSA test which was at "zero", for which I thank God, but my radiologist suggests I get my first colonoscopy. Lord have mercy! I was getting more of my energy back, but it seems I have more bouts with fatigue again. I am also anemic from the radiation & have been taking iron hoping to alleviate the anemia and the fatigue.
