Excellent news.
Keep up with the PSA tests anyway. Just in case.

That’s great!

When you say that it came back “negative,” do you mean that each sample was reported as “benign?”

My second biopsy was negative. The first showed 3+3 Gleason (psa was around 11), Then 6 months later I had a URONAV 3d biopsy and yep, small active tumor next to the colon. Decided on RP - April 2025. Poke and hope biopsies are not so accurate because they shoot from the hip where they think a tumor might be.
Watch your PSA levels.

Great to hear! Same thing happened in my recent "scare." So many things pointed to prostate cancer -- MRI, PSA labs, etc, until the very negative biopsy. I will continue to have at least annual PSA tests run. I agree with you, this group of folks has been amazing with support and nearly exclusive up-to-date information.
