  • Prostate radiation psa?

    The PSA in this situation depends on the value of PSA prior to initiation of RT and the timing of the last dose of Lupron. If the dose was a "3-month dose" and it was administered more than 3 months prior to blood draw, the effects of Lupron may be wearing off. At any rate, a repeat test would be helpful in another 3 months. READ MORE
