Well guys the news just got a whole lot worse. I had another PSA test done yesterday which is only a month after the last one and the PSA has gone from 5 to 8 !!!! My Test levels are down to 929 and my Estragen is as low as 12. So I guess I am pretty much fvcked now. The Dr is going to organise a biopsy this week some time. Its 6.00 am here and I am shitting myself !!!

Thanks mate. I am shitting myself right now. Not sure what to do or if even to do anything. I watched my daughter die from cancer and it is not a good way to go.

Bro, How does your Doc feel about running another PSA this week before you do the biopsy? You know, just to confirm that result. Remember not all pathologists are created equal. Give yourself a few days of (No Lifting, No Alcohol, No Caffiene, No Testosterone and No Sex of any kind) then re-take the PSA. That should provide a more accurate result.
Worth a try bro.....Keep us posted

My fatherinlaw was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and his PSA was 8 as well. I am stopping all Test and HGH as of today. I may try and do a PCT but I am not sure my natty test will restart now. At 51, 8 is a really bad number

Kale do you have any other prostate related symptoms such as difficulty urinating or having to wake up multiple times at night to go to the bathroom?
This is scary stuff. My PSA was 1.3 but my estrogen was 9 even without taking anything.
Do you think that HRT is responsible for these PSA results?Last edited by cmax; 10-02-2006 at 08:07 PM.

I have BPH (Benighn Prostate Hyperplasia) which means basically an enlarged Prostate. I have had trouble in the past urinating and wakeing up mutiple times but that was fixed with drugs. I doubt this is an infection I have as there is no pain whatsoever.

You talked about family members having prostate cancer like a step father and a father-in-law, but what about your biological father, uncles, or grandfather did they have prostate problems?
I believe that some people are more predisposed to prostate problems due to their hereditary.
Good Luck Kale, there are some excellent doctors in Singapore. Mount Elizabeth hospital is a great facility.

Kale are you a Singaporean? I heard that the government picks up much of the medical bills for their citizens, but when I lived there it was expensive for ex-patriots that did not have insurance.

Kale,
Good morning bro! My guess is its pretty early out your way!
Do you still have access to Mobligator? Is he still on the brd? He seemed to be loaded with helpful info.
Keep us posted on the next PSA results.

Like I said yesterday - good luck with the results. You seem to have a lot of shit on your plate at the moment.
I just read your website for Jazzy - I am completely choked sitting here at work now.
Seems like you are due a few lucky breaks.
Call me if you need anything.

Kale, this is off topic, but I was wondering if the scene over at Orchard Towers really lives up to the hype. Does it?

Sorry to read about your problems Kale ...... best of luck with the future. Life sometimes doesn't seem fair and you have had more than your fair share of shite. I have been to Jazzy's site this afternoon as well, and also read what that tosser had sent to you. The site was beautiful ..... a lovely tribute to her, your wife and kids as well. You brought tears to my eyes the other day .... this time you made me cry!!!
If I prayed then my prayers would be with you .... but unfortunately I can only offer you the best of luck!

I wish that all of us could just get our damn prostates removed. That would make things much easier. Who in the hell needs their prostate anyways?
I hope and would be willing to bet that it is nothing. I hear that you can lower your PSA levels by consuming large amounts of anchor beer and chilli crabs. It's worth a try!

OK just got back, the news is still not great. My free PSA is 11.9% the range is from 0-10% pretty conclusive for malignancey, 10-25% Inconclusive, 25%+ no tumor. So I am pretty close to being sure that there is something there. The Dr recommends biopsy. I have decided I am going back to Oz in a month and a half and I am going to have the whole thing redone there and the biopsy as well if necessary. They just cant explain the big jump and I am not confident in the Urologist. If I have cancer, six weeks wont make much difference as they arnt fast growing anyway. I am happy with that decision and I am resigned to the fact that whatever will be will be, and there isnt a whole lot I can do about it. I am comming off HGH, I stopped on Monday anyway but I am staying on 50mg Test E a week until the biospy if I need one. Where is Mobligator when I need him !!!

Wow that sounds serious. During your last test you had a PSA of 8 and now it's 11.9??? I hope that this 11.9 is on a different scale. I have heard that anything about 4.0 is bad.
Where or what is Oz? They have good doctors in Singapore, but you might want to consider going to the United States to a urology specialty center to see what they recommend.
It seems like a biopsy may be the only way to go here.
Other than these test results, how do you feel healthwise?

Kale, if you're not getting a good vibe from the Doc in Singapore than by all means back to Oz!
Let me see if I understand: If free PSA is above 25% than all is well? But at 11.9 yours is inconclusive....correct? So, in a free PSA test the higher the number the better? Geesch, this is getting confusing!
I wish Mobligator would show up too. He has the most experience with all of this and would be so valuable to you now!

Kale,
Ya know I do remember Mobligator talking about specialists in Atlanta, Ga. That is where he went. Here is that website i just found it: www.rcog.com
