I did have an MRI first, but it didn’t reveal anything suspicious. The biopsy, on the other hand, revealed cancer. I am very happy with the process my urologist used. If he had decided that the MRI was enough to determine there was no cancer, I could have ended up in a very bad place.

You are happy with your urologist and that is what is important. It is your urologist and you who make the decision of what is best for you based on your urologist who has your full medical history and has examined you.
It appears you have a very experienced urologist who wanted to do biopsies to rule out and found your PC. Appears to me you are in good hands and in today's world when you feel that way does wonders with your journey through PC.

You did say in your statement that the urologist said the only way to find out what was going on to us to do a biopsy. You didn’t mention the MRI so that did seem suspicious.
You also didn’t state what your PSA was, A big factor in whether or not there’s a problem, What was the Gleason score the biopsy came up with? When there’s nothing found in the MRI one would suspect 3+4 and 3+3. Did they find higher numbers? Just interesting to know when the MRI shows nothing what the biopsy actually comes up with. Something other people besides me would like to hear about.
