I'm a 61 year old man and I've just had a PSA blood test one and I've had a call from my GP to arrange an appointment
The result was 4.9 and I'm petrified !

Hi,
In 2012 I had a PSA of 18 and it turned out to be a waterworks infection. After antibiotics, it retreated to under 2.5. Hope by now you know more. fast forward to today, and I now have prostate cancer, but it has been caught early and can be cured. Be happy you are on the pathway, with prostate cancer the early bird can often be cured.

So I saw the consultant and he has no concerns as my prostate shows no change to my last MRI in 2019, other than its bigger .. gone from 30g to 55g ... he has however offered a Prostate Biopsy to put my mind at rest
