Thanks for the reference study. Anecdotal data suggests I was extremely impacted.
I’m being monitored by a urologist. For the time being I am NOT pushing for prostate biopsies.
I am hoping MRI and PSMA PET scan technology in the US improves and replaces the need for biopsies in the monitoring stage.
Biopsies are notoriously inconclusive when negative results are obtained.
I have done some research on the topic when there were some hints at doing biopsies.
I am now a strong believer that we must be our own advocate in health care.

My husband's PSA was 5.5 6 years ago and had a positive biopsy result. He had the Da Vinci microsurgery, so no nerve damage. For most, prostate cancer grows so slowly that men die of old age first. My husband's didn't have clear margins on his cancer so he still has to get his PSA tested.
