Curious if you have any other testing to support a diagnosis and biopsy? Did you have a DRE and they found a lesion or a 4Kblood score, a psma pet scan?
I was diagnosed with a PSA of 3.2 (age normal), DRE found a tumor, 4Kblood score predicted 34% chance of fast-moving cancer, then a confirming mri with contrast, then a biopsy which was positive followed by PSMA Pet scan looking for spread prior to removal. Now doing salvage radiation and ADT 26 months later.

My goal is to get a biopsy as fast as possible which is taking a month or so and get a lid on this quickly. I have 1 cm lesion in transitional zone with a lot of weird conflicting info from multiple sources. I really want to stay ahead of this with action

My PSA has dropped to 1.87 now. I went in yesterday for a new PSA. My primary care ordered that. I’m now waiting for a focused biopsy, they can’t use my current MRI so they’re doing that again to conduct it. My DRE is negative the urine PSE test is slightly elevated
