GO out have fun and enjoy the spring. If I were you, I wouldn't worry at all!...
My husband had MRI last July, showed 1 Pi-rad 5, 5 core fusion biopsy, no cancer found but fat. The urologist said he didn't like the result (no gland) so he asked my husband to do another biopsy in...
Usually when the doctor tells you not to worry, you don't have to worry. Too bad you didn't enjoy at the lake with your wife. The urologists told my husband " I don't think you have cancer" , he...
My husband has 18.80 PSA and is not cancer. ( 3 biopsies, 2 MRI) Uro told us he had numbers of patients with higher PSA were not cancer. There is chance and hope. Good luck!...
My husband had 3 biopsies done and felt nothing, just very little blood found when peed in 2 days. Don't worry about the biopsy and good luck!...
I have read these kind of opinion and articles very often. This is not the first time and won't be the last....
My husband had 2 MRI in 6 month. He said he felt nothing during the procedure and afterwards. Maybe he had different ones. Gone straight to biopsy sometimes can't find the spots even they do exist....
Will MRI help him to decide whether he should have biopsy? Anybody here can give them advice/suggestion?...
I have only been here for a very short period of time and I don't know too many people here. I believe there are many great heroes here. For me, Tall Allen is my hero. He didn't only answer me here...
I can feel how you feel and like to share my experience with you. My husband's PSA was over 10 in 2009. Did 12 core biopsy, found nothing. It went ups and downs in these years and I was living in...
The uro called this morning. This is his explanation for us: He did 8 cores on the 2 suspicious areas and that was what he told us after the biopsy. He also did a 12-core scattered biopsy as his...
My husband did a MRI fusion biopsy on 3/9, the result came back all negative. The urologist told us he did 8 biopsy ( and the nurse told us the same thing) . We received the report by mail today that...
Result: MRI 3/2: two Lesions; both PI-RAD 3. Fusion biopsy 3/9 Urologist called: Good news, no cancer cell found. Just keep the yearly routine PSA test!!! I want to thank all those who have...
Sorry to hear that! God bless his family....
Very happy for you. It's time for celebrations! Congratulations!...
Please read "2 years AS Results so far" by Jimbo 58 on page 3. He has 2 PI-RAD 5 and found no cancer under 40 needle biopsy. Good luck!...
I am sure others with experience will give you more details. For my understanding, PI-RADS 4 lesion doesn't mean he has cancer, only biopsy can tell. I have heard many with PI-RADS 5 but no cancer. (...
Hi northerner, I am also an anxious wife who doing research for my husband. Do you mind to share your husband's story? My husband will be having MRI and fusion biopsy in two weeks. If he finds PCa,...
I am very happy for you, enjoy! We are still in the waiting game, will know in two weeks!...
Thank you for your kind words. It made me feel much better. My husband turned 70 this month. Good thing is that he is very optimistic. I bet he even doesn't think about it until he sees the worrisome...
TA said he has never heard fat in prostate and I found nothing on internets. My question is: where else can you find fat? is it possible that the first rologist missed it by a mile?...
Thanks you for all your response. Sr Sailor: the first urologist did the fusion biopsy. Result: no cancer cell found. He said he was not happy with the result because it didn't include any glands....
My bad, it's ASAdvocate, not ADA....
(ADA advised me to put this on a new topic. Thanks.) This is my husband 's story: Turned 70 this year PSA 17.1 (June 2016), Prostate 140cc MRI (July 2016) One Pi-rad 5 found, 16mmx 3mm Fusion biopsy:...
I am no expert on PCa but I know very well that your urologist shouldn't have done the DRE before the PSA test. It will raise the PSA number. (it's common sense.) Even like that, your PSA is lower...
HI Halbert, my husband is going to have MRI and fusion biopsy in two weeks. We still didn't confirm whether he has PCa but I am very frustrated and depressed. You don't know how much your story...
Hi Allen, why a saturation biopsy may be better than a fusion one in his case? I thought fusion biopsy can get to he point without unnecessary needles. I am new to this. Thanks....
Allen, thank you for your reply. We went to another urologist for a second opinion. He said it was weird too so suggested my husband to take another MRI and fusion biopsy in early March. I will keep...
My urologist told us somebody with very high PSA doesn't have cancer. Most PSA with PCa don't go down. I sincerely hope you are fine. Please let us know....
In my husband's MRI, the urologist found a small pirad 5 suspicious spot. He took 5 samples from the fusion biopsy and found no cancer but some fat. Does anyone know about fat in prostate? Or is it...
3 : intermediate (the presence of clinically significant cancer is equivocal) 4 : high (cliccll significant cancer is likely to be present) My husband had his MRI too and I just posted under MRI. I...
MY husband just turned 70 last week. In 2009, his PSA was 10+ and last year up to 18.8. He has a very big prostate---140 and his PSA density is 1.34 (which is a good number. ) When his PSA jumped to...
My husband's PSA was 11+ five years ago. 12 biopsies came out negative. Doctor and urologist told him he was born with large prostate (not enlarge). I was here five years ago and know how difficult...
