Hi, i feel a bit silly as all i have had is a blood test and x ray on my back. My test results showed slight elevation on WBC (11), also 7.2 on PSA. I could see my results on my NHS App but since i had an X ray on my back today i can no longer see my test results and am worried there is a big problem. A doctor did a prostate exam and it said enlarged but smooth. I suffer from anxiety and its gone through the roof. Should i be worried.

I am 64 and i am told i will see a consultant in the next couple of weeks.
