PSA 12

I finally have something concrete to report. Mike's PSA has dropped to 12 from 17. The doctor (and Mike) believe the chemo is not the reason. After at least 8 rounds of the latest chemo, it has stopped being of any benefit.

We were told that Mike's leg will not go down and the best we can do is make sure it doesn't get infected. The doctor prescribed some anti-biotics to have on hand just in case. He also feels that staying on the Lupron is critical at this point. So that's where we will be for the next few months at least.

Mike's PSA is at 17 as of the last test. He's on every therapy they can throw at him. Insurance runs out on May 31. I'm so tired.
