Excellent news! Depending on where the MRI was read and your confidence in that reading, you can contact another provider can have a second reading of the MRI. I'm not saying you need to, but rather just making your aware of that option. I got a second reading of my MRI at a cancer center of excellence and it was very little effort and my insurance covered it for me. Also, although it sounds like you don't need it yet, just know that I had a fusion biopsy and it wasn't a big deal at all. They put me out and recovery was quick. So if you ever advance to the point where you need a biopsy, don't be afraid of it. Just be sure to go to a cancer center of excellence with the best technology. Expertise counts. Best wishes.
