@robj67, did you learn anything from your cancer team about the ultrasensitive PSA (uPSA) tend to read higher than standard PSA tests?

I didn't get a definitive answer, but through our discussions there was not any differentiation between the readings, so the uPSA was regarded as the same as the PSA.

I had my PMSA on the 20th, but with the Holiday and the oncology team being out, waiting on a complete reading. MRI Prostate on the 8th and will start ADT and radiation at that point.
