Here you go again. Look at the numbers again!
.75 means the PSA is less than one 1.0. I posted my PSA for many years when I was younger. It was .75. Which means less that one 1.0.
Now look at the climb I posted: .75 to 3.75. 3.75 means three (3) times higher as it went from exactly what I posted .75 to 3.75 and steady increase over 6 years.
3.75 is an increase of 3 full points over the years.
Please if you are going to fact check others really look at what you are referring to!
It is a rising number over several years from exactly what I posted .75 to 3.75. My PCP at Mayo then said we have looked at many causes and still keeps rising and referred me to urologist with my last test showing 3.75

Hey JC, so what would a urologist do for you at this point? You had proton beam and it’s been pretty good. Is the PCP thinking surgery?
I would thing some ADT first would be a lesser evil, no?

Not sure what I saw, Must have been Blind to that period’s location in .75. Sorry about that.
.75 to 3.75 over 6 years is an interesting increase not a fast doubling rate. Can’t hurt to check it out, and you did!!!
Hopefully your below 1 PSA lasts, many people can be cured.
