Rising PSA

I had a very low but persistent and slightly rising PSA. The Radiologist wanted the scan to help focus on the sight of the tumor. The Oncologist said that it would be too low to detect but they went ahead anyway. The Oncologist was right, the source of the PSA was undetectable so the Radiologist irradiated the same area he was going to focus on anyway. An expensive experiment.
