High PSA, but MRI is negative. Biopsy or Not?

@jeffmarc I've thought a lot about this and am getting further convinced that before I schedule a biopsy, I will insist on the EpiSwitch PSE test, then if PSE says cancer is present, I'll get another MRI to find lesions, and then schedule the biopsy so they know where to target the needle.

Thanks to all here for providing me with some insight and direction.

Hopefully the MRI will find lesions, but there are cases where there are none found, but the cancer is in the prostate tissue.

In that case, the doctor randomly selects different spots in the prostate.
