@indyguy Hi. Yes, I did end up having a fusion guided transrectal biopsy in the surgery center next door to their office, but they knocked me out for it, which was appreciated! They targeted the pirads-4 lesion from my MRI (which ended up being Gleason 7) and then took several random cores too. I just read that your MRI showed pirads 3 so hopefully that means your biopsy results will be even more favorable.

Several on here strongly recommended transperineal and I tried to talk to my urologists office about that, but they were pretty adamant that they only do transrectal and that it is somehow better. Because it was already scheduled and I didn't want to start over with a new urology group, I proceeded that way, especially since there was just one visible lesion on the MRI and they said they could target it with the transrectal.

The discolored pee still comes and goes, but much better. I thought it was all clear, but not yet. Don't get me started on the color of my semen! It's disgusting. lol. I'm wearing feminine pads that stick to your underwear, so there's that. I think they used to be called "panty liners" back in the day. Thanks for the positive thoughts. Right back at you!
