Not Good News after prostate biospy when MRI didn't look too bad

From what I can figure I am a 2C, if the rib thing is not Osseous metastasis. If it is, well things are a lost cause. More I read it seems a lot of things express PSMA uptake, but for whatever reason they didn't assign a SUV to rib? PA-C said because It was a solitary & suggestive of benign lesion and that is why, but he is not a radiologist. I am going to try to get them to biopsy it or something when I see them on 9th. Here is a place I found interesting for staging, don't know if accurate, but seemed to be? https://ro.co/health-guide/prostate-cancer-stages-and-grades/

@diverjer I had similar results from my PSMA - a lesion on the lateral crest of the hip; I was scared **itless!
My RO said it was not metastasis since not much showed anywhere else and it would be unusual (but still remotely possible) to see a definitive lesion so far away from the prostate bed with nothing in between.
In other words, you’d see a ‘trail’ of spots leading from point A to point B. You should be OK.
The radiologist has to cover his butt by saying metastasis is not entirely excluded.
