I meet with the urologist on Monday to discuss next step.
Sorry about positive result. Good that they found early. Will be curious to hear what they say.
I expect to hear my results today or Monday.

Mine was a MRI / Sonogram fusion targeted and random through rectum. Four samples targeted at suspicious spot from MRI and 12 random covering entire prostate.
My PSA is 2.7. MRI was done because of nodule found on DRE. MRI found 4 mm suspicious spot so biopsy was recommended.
