“My PSA was over 6.
Urologist did an MRI that showed a tumor.
Urologist did a biopsy that showed cancer.
Urologist did a PSMA PET scan to show details.
Went on an androgen-deprivation medication.
Underwent 28 proton radiation therapy treatments.
My PSA is now 0.03.

Anyway, the MRI in my case came BEFORE the biopsy, so not sure what the author is talking about.”

I had an MRI follow up to a kidney problem. It showed a prostate tumor. My blood showed a PSA of 270! Everyone thought I was done for. I had the biopsy and then was also put through radiation and testosterone deprivation shots. My PSA is now 0.04 and the doctors are saying I am a very rare case. Phew!
