I can relate. I just turned 56. Had a mri yesterday based on elevated psa , dre and symptoms. It showed 2 lesions. My doctor wants to do a biopsy and is booked into late January . I am not sure if I will find another doctor to do it sooner or wait it out. Doing my research now. Good luck

You definitely should find a different doctor. Are there any medical groups like the Mayo Clinic near where you live? Waiting 2-3 months could allow the cancer to spread if it is high risk.

Your life expectancy may depend on you being proactive.
