@jc76 Yes, the Gleason score from the biospy determine at the best level of evidence, the future course of treatment. The PSA is like a check engine light, but #3 in it effectiveness in what's going on or not going on with the gland.

Exactly it is a warning sign. The warning signs says need to check why. Then you have the tests to determine what is causing it.

Bottom line don't ignore the engine light have it checked why it is on or for prostate why is rising or getting high. The light does not tell you what the problem is only tests do that it is merely a warning something is causing a rise in PSA. That something wrong warning moves to uroligist exams, MRIs, biopsies, etc. diagnoses. The engine light is not a diagnosis it is a warning have it checked.
