Hi
I’m a 78-year-old whose PSA rose from 3.6 to 6.8 in just over three years. This is the first time I’ve ever been above 4, and needless to say, I’m extremely stressed about it. I met with my urologist, who performed a DRE and found a smooth asymmetric prostate. Nonetheless, I feel like I’m in a tough spot and need help figuring out what to do. The urologist has scheduled me for an MRI in three weeks. My brother passed away from prostate cancer three years ago undiscovered/untreated until the year before. He passed just before his 87th birthday. I live alone, and this situation is frightening. Waiting for the MRI is so stressful, how do you get through it.
