Hi ;
Thanks for the input , you're right about it being easy to find a PSE test center - there is one nearby but the problem is even if I wanted to pay cash to get the test they won't give it to me without my provider issuing an approval . My urologist at Kaiser said he would not approve a PSE test nor any of the other non- standard tests - at this time Kaiser's policy is to only approve the PSA test , an MRI ( with a lot of pressure from the patient .... as it took me 2 months to pressure them into approving one ) and a transrectal biopsy . I will take another PSA in 6 months and if my number rises I'll probably have to go with the transrectal biopsy . though with my little sister passing away last year with a blood infection from a much less invasive procedure I'm still not happy about the prospect .....
