Well, I received my biopsy results today posted on the Urologist's patient portal. Good news. Twelve cores were taken, all benign. However, one core from the left lateral mid zone was tagged as HGPIN. I'm assuming that core was collected from the nodule. My online research found that the area will need further surveillance in case anything changes. The cores will now be sent to CONFIRM MDx to evaluate for false negatives. Fingets crossed. I have to meet with my Urologist on 4/9 for further discussion, so we shall see.

@kpg7121 I had a fusion biopsy in August 2024 and was diagnosed with a HGPIN. Fast forward through a number of diagnostic tests and PSA up to 7.7 last September. Another fusion biopsy in January. Positive for PC; Gleason 3+4, .88 Decipher score. Starting ADT next week and radiation in June. Good luck to you.
