Just plain good fun I’ll have to say although a little on the intrusive side.i had an elevated psi level about 4.1 I believe and that led to a mri showing a spot on my prostate.Scheduled the biopsy and just got some good news,don’t have to go back for 6 months.Doing a little research in 5-10 years it may turn into cancer but I should be around for awhile,lol

Good news.

Ewwww did they put you under for that?

Thats good news. Got two cousins and brother inlaw just had theirs removed.

No- first they stick this footlong hotdog looking thing up towards your prosate if you know what I’m saying then you get 8-10 shots of novacane followed by a biopsy needle taking 4 biopsies like 6-8 times.Most of them weren’t to horrible but about 3 sent me through the roof.Talking to the nurse afterwards she said they don’t like putting people under for such a short procedure and it ends up being a lot of money out of pocket for patients.I would definitely pay a couple thousand to not have to go through that.

Yeah the two cousins I actually talk to had theirs taken out also.I have talked to a couple people that caught it early and had the radioactive seeds put in with great results.

Feels like a rubber band snapping in that area...

Same exact experience here, but my PSA dropped from 6 two years ago, to 4 now. I haven't lost one minutes sleep over it.
