High PSA

Hi had a PSA blood test last week results very high at 56,been for CT scan today , unsure of what might be outcome.Anyone else had similar?

  • Hello and thank you for posting

    People will hopefully come back to you, but I'm sure you're aware that the outcomes may vary, as everyone is very different, even though on paper they may look exactly the same.

    The CT scan will give some more information and then the results are usually discussed at a MDT (multidisciplinary meeting consisting of various health professionals) so a plan can be made for what the next step, if any, may be.

    I think you just have to wait for the results first and see what is said - if you would like to give us a ring at any time to have a chat about any of this, please do -

    Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    All the best and I hope it's not too long a wait

  • Hi - I had a PSA test of 61 shared with me last week, came as a massive shick. How are you doing now?

  • Start 7 and a half weeks of radiotherapy next week.Scans etc showed had spread to lymph nodes.Also having hormone therapy injections monthly

  • Sorry to hear that, I may well be in the same boat shortly given my even higher PSA reading. 

    So, you're stage 3 and not stage 4...the outlook is still favourable. Are you otherwise in good health for your age? How are your loved ones coping?

    Wishing you well.
