Sorry I was short on the phone yesterday. I apologize. I go in next Wednesday for my biopsy. Pa levels are 5.2 and they should be 4.0 so I might have Prostrate Cancer.

Coming your way, Brother.
Thoughts and prayers Ship!
... and you might not. The PSA is just a marker and not a perfect one. So, don't worry. Even if you do have PC, it's very treatable if detected early.Quote:

Prayers are indeed going up for you and your continuing good health. I know how it feels to get unexpected news like what you're talking about. It was on Tuesday of last week that I went in for my labs... the next morning I had two phone calls (one from a nurse and one from a doctor) warning me that my creatinine levels were almost 5 times what they should be normally... (indicating possible kidney failure) and that I should go to the local Emergency Room ASAP.

I dropped everything I was doing and went to the ER... and after all day waiting and drawing new labs... and just before being hospitalized... it turned out the VA must have misread something or mixed my test results up with someone else's. I learned, however, that my creatinine levels were perfectly normal... so it was all good. I wish you the best of luck and continue to have faith that all will be well with you Mike.
