    I've read a great deal of the professional literature on prostate cancer and can say (IMHO) that it is probably one of the hardest, educated guessing games there is for physicians. At 65, my dad's PSA spiked. For the next 2 years he had a biopsy every 6 months (all negative) he finally told his doctor, "No more!" At age 91, he's is still kicking!

    My PSA spiked to 6. GP said should do a DRE but did not want to ruin a friendship so referred me to a Urologist.

    Man is this video obsolete ....
    Next step 4k blood test ....
    MRI with possible targeted biopsy...
    ( If you can't see the target, there are lots of misses ...)

    There are a lot of reasons other than prostate cancer that raises psa. The results of the testing are coming!
