Guest guest Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 I got a lot of information from this site and other links you provided. It will certainly help when I see the urologist on the 25th Discovered I had a high PSA (5.4) during a routine physical. Dr recommended a biopsy and I had it on 8/31. Twelve samples were taken and only one was cancer. The Dr called with the results and I did panic a little. Didn't ask any questions, didn't know wnat to ask. But after the information here I now have a list and feel that I can be in control of my treatments. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
