My husband has had continual rises in his PSA levels from 6.8 the latest being 12, he’s already had a biopsy 18 months ago and they said it’s all fine, but when he’s had the rides after that they’ve said it’s nothing to worry about but now it’s 12 should we be worried and what should happen now it’s this high all of his brothers have had prostate cancer and two having there prostrate removed.

    Hi Alanorwill, and welcome to the forum, none of us are privy to your husbands hospital records, and it's not right to guess, though I would have hoped a rising PSA, along with a strong familial link, would be deserving of answers and an explanation to ease your mind, I would certainly be asking for one. but please remember there are a causes other than cancer, for your husbands PSA rise, best wishes.
