“Can but doesn’t always. The digital check is also necessary. My husband’s PSAs were normal but the digital detected a slight difference which got biopsied which showed cancer. All contained within the gland but still there.
As annoying as the digital is ... just do it.”
No digital check for me. They sent me to an imaging center for an MRI. Had about eight total scans. Meeting with Dr. tomorrow to see what they reveal.
I had digital checks twice, went to the Hospital, they checked me for Mesothelioma. I turned out to have mets to bones. Nothing in the prostate. Just ribs and shoulder.
