Hi All,
I'm 61 and recently had a health MOT at the doctor, the blood tests were normal apart from the PSA which was 5.8.
The doctor immediately referred me to the local hospital where I had an MRI with contrast dye 10 days later.
Around 6 years ago my PSA was 2.6 so its been rising over the last few years. I haven't had a DR exam yet as the Docs are only seeing people via phone at present.
Some other issues which has me worried is that I appear to have sciatica in my right leg. I've been getting shooting pains whilst stretching and there is a constant ache in my lower buttock. Nurofen plus seems to help so I assume the nerve is somehow inflamed, Googling sciatica and prostate suggests advanced prostate cancer, so I hope this isn't the case.
Something else I noticed last year was very cloudy urine which I assume was an infection though that episode passed and hasn't reoccurred.
I don't have much trouble with urine flow, I don't get up in the night but I am prone to dribbling, but this has been the case for years. I probably do have ED but put this down to getting older and loss of interest.
I'm having a phone consultation with the Urologist later this week and am worried about what the initial diagnosis will be and any reassurance would be welcome.
