Thought I would join here as I am currently on the information gathering pathway.
I turned 51 end of 2025.
4 weeks ago I had a round of bloods and checks, which returned a psa of 4.06. This is up from my last checks in 2022 when I had a psa of 3.93.
I was put on the 2 week pathway, and had an MRI will told me I had 3 areas or concern, one a pirad-2, one a pirad-4 and another pirad-5. My prostate is 70ml. I am also 6’8 and 280lb so not an average sized man.
All of this has been hugely worrying. My biopsy is tomorrow, which in itself is causing more anxiety as it is a transperianal - having adhd and brain that catastrophizes everything means its already been a difficult month.
Not really looking for any, just felt this would be a good place to check in and share
Hello Matt (Matt74)
A warm welcome to the Macmillan online Community although I am so sorry to find you joining us.
As Steve (Grundo ) said in his post above - so far nothing to worry about. The biopsy will tel you yes or no - here's our notes on the biopsy:
As you said you have ADHD - try and think it's just another day at work - and the staff are there for you - do tell them you have ADHD and they will look after you. 
.
Do let us know how you get on.
Best wishes - Brian.
