Thanks Jeff,

Yes, 94 cores seems 🙏”way excessive” I called the Doctor the correct number he said is 24, but that still seems excessive to me. ( especially after 14 cores all negative ) And yes, I have had a prostrate specific MRI with contrast & a PMSA-PET CT scan both showed something, but was inconclusive? My Doctor says let’s just remove your prostrate and be done! I said Absolutely not……. There are a lot of options before I would even consider this…… I also asked him what if the 24 core biopsy comes back negative. He said we will continue biopsies until we find something! My PSA jumped significantly after the first Biopsy I think it was the trauma of being stabbed 14 times…….. Thank you for your suggestions the VA has been EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH …… took two years just to get an appointment to see a Doctor! Yes, Doc says I have mild to moderate BPH could also be causing the elevated PSA……
