I am 48 years old. When I had a DRE a while back, it was normal. At age 45 I had my first PSA test and it was 2.47. Since then, every 6 months I have my PSA tested and it went from 2.47, to 2.53, 2.49, 4.07, and the most recent it dropped back down to 2.62.

Last month the Urologist sent me to have a MRI of the prostate. It came back with 1 lesion, PIRADS 4, and from what I read capsule is intact, and nothing outside etc. A MRI fusion biopsy was recommended. I was told it will be transrectal when I asked, however the paperwork says transperinial. I do believe it will be transrectal however.

At the end of this week I go for my Biopsy. I'm a bit nervous. I'm sure I will be more nervous afte
