Just viewed my results 3 weeks after my first Chemo, my PSA has gone up from 5.7 to 7, so you can imagine I am gutted, especially as it was going down albeit slowing in its reduction time. I am aware that sometimes PSA can rise initially and then decrease at the start, so if any of you guys out there have experienced this, did you achieve a reduction after further cycles.
I talked to my Onco regarding the pain after the jab to increase my WBC and he said that I won't receive it this time, as my count is well up at 17,000 so that's a plus, my red cell count has gone down slightly but still within normal limits and all other blood seem OK so the green light has been given to proceed with cycle 2 next Tuesday.
All the best
Roy
