Will a PSA of 135 be accompanied by symptoms in prostate cancer

Will a PSA of 135 be accompanied by symptoms in prostate cancer?
My friend's spouse has had prostate cancer for three years without treatment. His PSA has climbed to 135. How soon will he suffer uncomfortable symptoms and what might they be??

You can't tell from the number. There is no threshold number that is associated with developing symptomatology. The symptoms, when they occur, depend on where the tumor is growing. Most often it is in the bones. In that case, the symptom will be bone pain.

135??? Do you mean 1.35 or 13.5??
