Yes things doing ok in Glossop. I have a COVID jab on Tuesday and a PSA test two days after. There are reports that COVID jab will give a falsely high PSA reading, and I want to test that theory. I am expecting an increase in PSA anyway as I am still recovering from HT. What will be interesting is how high it goes up and if on a subsequent test months after the COVID jab it goes back down. It's not really a randomised controlled trial, and I don't think I'll get this published in The Lancet. I think I could get it peer reviewed by my friends at the pub, after all they are my peers. So my best chance of publication in a peer reviewed journal is the CAMRA good pub guide. However if you see a headline on the Daily Mail saying scientists have made a break through in cancer testing and it mentions scientific research in Glossop take it with a pinch of salt, as you should do with all Daily Mail headlines.
