My Journey....

So far three Biopies, the last one was MRI-guided
No cancer but PSA is rising I just went for blood work yesterday and we will see if it has risen since 1/23 PSA 15.7
I'm getting ready for Testosterone shots due to my number being in the normal but low range..259
I'm going into it with caution and doing blood work every 3 months and also watching any urination changes (large prostate already)
I'm posting this and going to post my journey as I do this and keep an eye on my Prostate
Oh....I had Thyroid cancer 1997 and my Thyroid was removed ..So I feel I have the cancer gene if there is one..

From my Chart:
Impression
1. Mild BPH.
2. Suspicious abnormality along the right apical posteriorly and and medially. Abnormality extends near the neurovascular bundle.

PI-RADS 4 - High (clinically significant cancer is likely to be present)
