Could Use Some Advice on Rising PSA

Well, no good result after my visit with my primary doctor again. I went in expecting to order a PSE test but he didn't want to do it. Instead, he said let's do the PSA test again in 6 months and if it goes up again we'll do more testing. I reiterated that it went from 1.4 in 2023, 2.0 last year to 2.8 this year but he didn't seem concerned.

If your doctor isn't willing to test more often, check drsays dot com. I was able to get a Total PSA test without a doctor's order, done at Labcorp for 30 bucks, but availability might vary by state.

Make an appointment straight with a Urologist, in the next few months. May take 4-8 weeks to get an appointment. Have them order the PSE test.
Best wishes.
