Had first of three sessions of the SABR treatment on Friday. Back again tomorrow and Thursday. No real side effects yet apart from a slight feeling of warmth on my butt

Fingers crossed

Cheers guys. All still good although told the RT could significantly weaken my hip overtime. Two down and one to go 👍

Bri ,Strangely my clunky arthritic hip has got better since my SABR treatment, probably no connection. 

Thanks Chris

Sabr treatment all finished. Got an oncol appointment on Monday. Not sure what to expect with my PSA results as my PSA dropped very slowly after the four weeks worth of RT I had 11 yrs ago

Fingers crossed it will have dropped to some degree

Bri ,six weeks after my first five sessions of SABR finished my PSA reminded the same, at the time I thought it was better than climbing. You may need to factor in Lyn's screams of death. 

Hope all goes well.

Thanks Chris

Bri, One of Lynn's quotes referring to a rising PSA following certain treatments, "Think of it as a silent scream as they die. " 

After stalling, my own PSA  rapidly rose after my first tumor was treated with SABR.

Thanks Chris

Oncology tel call today which had been pencilled in as part of my usual 4 monthly appointments. Finished SABR treatment on 25th April. Had PSA blood taken on 8th May. Oncologist said they normally wait 3 months before the first test following SABR but even after two weeks my PSA had dropped from 0.86 in January to 0.54 today. To put that in context my PSA has dropped to the level it was almost 2 years ago. So next PSA rest in August. Fingers crossed it drops again. Very clearly told me not curable but will take that result 👍

Had oncol appointment and told just over 3 months since SABR my PSA has dropped to 0.3. Next appointment in 6 months. Hopefully the PSA will continue to drop

Cheers

Sounds a good result Bri. Keep strong brother. The waiting is a swine …..

If it's coming down, then they definitely hit something of significance, which is good. I couldn't find you reporting a recent pre-SABR PSA level though.

User

Hi Andy

My PSA prior to SABR was 0.85

Cheers
