Like to point out that all siblings are doing ok and no serious problems thanks to speedy treatment and surveillance.
Great news for me as my repeat PSA at GP has shown a decrease to 3.82, taking me under the line for age and back to GREEN. Still a high percentage increase of 3 to 3.8.

@AmexRuislip I'm glad you're still breathing, too!
This year I had both younger sisters have mastectomies and my brother waiting for prostate cancer treatment. So thought I'd repeat the PSA with PCSaO.
