[QUOTE="OMI100, post: 93327, member: 71"] FWIW This is short version:) Rising PSA. I had issues and my thyroid DR put me on Doxy 2Xday for 30 days. PSA went down. URO appointment time. I had rising PSA. I had an infection. Bactrium is their first choice. Did not work. Lets do biopsy. No. Lets do 4K blood test. (look it up) O.K. Good results. PSA went up. Put on CIPRO 21 days. Nothing. PSA still high. Lets do biopsy. NO. Lets do a 3T-MP-MRI of the prostate. (research it) Nothing big jumped out. Tried Ceftin. Tried Bactrim. PSA still high. Still have infection. (I think I covered this part in another tread) Lets try DOXY again as it seemed to work months ago. PSA 7.9. Started Doxy 100mg 2Xday. (10/11/17) PSA 5.4 after month. Still on Doxy. (11/16/17) PSA 4.9 (12/5/17) PSA 5.8 (12/15/17) 1/12/18 did another PSA. Should get results Monday or Tuesday. Just finished Doxy. You can order your own PSA test in most states. Cheap. Get results in a few days. I would ask for a 4K blood test if the meds don't drop it back. I would also ask for a 3T-MP-MRI of the prostate before a biopsy. If you do need to get a biopsy understand the different types that are out there. You can get an MRI guided biopsy based on the 3T-MP-MRI. You can get a "live" MRI guided biopsy where you are in the MRI and the biopsy is "taken real time" as you are getting the MRI. a LOT of great info from a LOT of folks at this site: [URL]https://www.inspire.com/[/URL] Join the Prostate Cancer Community and look around. Search 4K blood test. Search 3T-MP-MRI. I am sure others here that have more experience with this will chime in. Bottom line is to do your homework and understand everything before you commit to anything. [/QUOTE]
