I have had high PSA reading for several years now. The last two years they have been holding in the 7-9 range. Neither my GP nor my urologist were overly concerned about the reading because the reading was not going up, and was not very high, it would actually start coming down, then go back up again.
I changed my urologist last year my mine left the practice, for the most par because they had a location that was much more convenient. My new (much younger) urologist gave me a more comprehensive blood test (can’t even tell you what it was called) in which one of the readings was very high. Given the high reading, he suggested (and I agreed) to a prostate biopsy.
I received the results from the biopsy last Wednesday (01/30/19). The results were positive for aggressive cancer in 4 of the 12 samples that were taken. The aggression levels were rated from 6-10, mine were at an 8.
He has requested a bone scan to determine whether or not the cancer has spread to the bones. That has been scheduled.
I have decided to share this publicly because:
- this may help someone else that is going through a similar circumstance.
- many people are praying and are concerned and are asking for updates.
- my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is control of all this and no matter how this turns out, God is in control and He will work all this to my good (Romans 8:28)
If you do not know the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, please take the time to read the Bible Tract on this website and learn how you can know for sure you can have a home in heaven!
