Results of my PSA and moving forward with more testing.
I have posted here about my PSA and my biopsy last year coming back benign. I just got my latest PSA and it's down a point from 12 to 11. So it's not increasing. Moving forward they are sending the cells they collected at the biopsy for further testing. They are doing genetic bloodwork for PC. I will know in about a month. I'm hopeful about this. If either of the tests come back positive I repeat the biopsy. If they come back negative I'm good.

If they come back negative , BEWARE .
I had a two ( 16 core ) Transperineal MRI Fusion Biopsies . Six cores in the target area .were classified as follows
My Biopsy came back negative . A 2nd Biopsy Gleason 6 A 2nd Opinion of my 2nd Biopspy was changed to ALL Gleason 3 + 4 = 7 A 3rd opinion was changed again to Four Cores Gleason 3 + 4 = 7
My MRI was PI RADS 5 and clearly my 1st Biopsy pathology report, which was negative . was in conflict with a RADS 5 Score .
