Talked to my surgeon today…

Well…as I mentioned earlier, today was the zoom meeting with my surgeon and it went well…talked for about 20 minutes about the plan going forward and we are now in wait and watch mode with PSA tests every three months for the next two years, every 6 months for the next three and then down to one per year…he did tell me one thing that I didn’t know…10 years ago they would have put me right into radiation treatment to attack the rest of the cancer but in studies they did, the outcome is no better than waiting until the PSA starts to come up again and then doing the treatment and for 50% of patients, they never need treatment…so I’m done with doctors for the rest of the year and that feels good…and I am going to have some cocktails tonight to celebrate…
