If you have another biopsy ask for a fusion type. They do an MRI then when biopsy occurs they have a map of your prostate. Think of a golf ball with some of the dimples having cancer and other not. Fusion type means they no exactly which dimples on the golf ball to biopsy. I had several biopsies and as you know that are very unpleasant. When my urologist said my numbers were increasing quickly again he wanted to do another biopsy I complained and he said well ok let’s use modern technology this time. Then I was diagnosed with cancer within a day of the procedure. It was a very depressing part of my life. When I received the news I had tunes on like I normally do after the dr hung up the phone I cranked the music and just sat there for about 4 hours before calling or texting anyone. I decided I wanted to know all the options and would be stupid to not accept treatment of my choosing. I actually wanted the radioactive pellet but the oncologist suggested that radiation was probably better choice for my case.

Now my stream is way better that it had been for decades.

What is your PSA numbers. That’s the indication of something is going on.

That's just me. Always tryin to find that light at the end and hoping it's not a train. Hey, if you can't find a little humor in your life it's probably time to cash out.

Good luck G. Brother it seems like when things start going down hill it takes alot to get back on level ground. Hang in there stay strong. I went to dermatologist Tuesday n she took a slice off my nose. Had a spot they froze then burned. It was still there. I'm waiting on results. I told her I'm kinda attached to my nose 🤔🤔

Not sure right now. This has been going on for years. Right now, probably 20-25.

Sorry to hear that, Greg. I’ve had two enlarged prostate’s. Both resolved with laser surgery.Recovery was pretty simple. Are you saying your PSA numbers are 20-25? Or .20 .25?…just had mine checked. .32 on a scale of 0.0-4.00. 🐟on

ghaynes1 Loc: Strawberry Plains, TN

Thanks Dave. 20-25. Pushing on bladder so hard that couldn't urinate. Some urine back up into kidneys.

This is a great Christmas conversation isn't it?

Thnx Mike.

DozerDave Loc: Port Orchard Wa.

Wow! I can’t believe they sent you home. I would think that they would want to keep an eye on you. And our bodies don’t know it’s Christmas. I just hope the pain isn’t too bad and that you will actually sit down and rest until you can see your urologist…🐟on

ghaynes1 Loc: Strawberry Plains, TN

I've been taking it easy. Pain is minimal. I'm on an antibiotic. I think the ER doc thought about keeping me in the hospital but the catheter gave me relief. We will see how I feel over the weekend.
