New Here: Haven't been diagnosed yet going to urologist soon

Just because you have a PSA higher than 4 does not necessarily mean you have Prostate Cancer. My PSA usually runs 7 to 9, but I have been diagnosed with PC, Gleason 6, and have been on active surveillance for 5 years with no change so far.

@bbmack
That is great that your PSA hasn't changed, especially not going up.
All I have had is good news, but the MRI will be the defining factor.
Fingers crossed 🤞

@bbmack , did you have an MRI and if so what was your Pirads score? I've also heard that an enlarged prostate produces more psa which may in part explain higher psa numbers. With a Gleason 6 how did you decide on active surveillance?
