@jeffmarc Thank you, I am getting a confirmatory MRI next week and more blood tests. I just am at a loss to know why my PSA score of 1 would show up. So much information to gather here.

As I mentioned previously about 1% of prostate cancer patients do not produce PSA. As a result PSA can be very low, even though they have a serious case of prostate cancer. The biggest problem is that it’s difficult to figure out when the cancer is coming back since the PSA doesn’t change. It requires PSMA PET scans more often.
