You need to get yourself setup to see all results online. Your GP surgery should be able to help with this.

Thanks very much for replies OH had biopsy results last summer, no sign of malignancy in the 34 cores taken but some PIN and ASAP. We have tried GP but receptionist said we need appointment as only GP can access results and they are very busy at present.

We have left message for Specialist Nurse at hospital and hoping for a call back. The PSA test of 5.1 last June was the first and only one OH has had so we have no historical trend to follow so knowing result of recent test would be so helpful.

Good luck Newbie, where I am the specialist nurse is very helpful but seems to work on the basis of checking voicemail messages and calling back a day or two later.

Bemused by Phil and his Tractor Hospital. I remember fondly my grandpa's "little grey Fergie" but Google doesn't suggest a hospital with that name!

Looks like we have some homework to do. I don't know which end to start from

Still, might help in compiling some pub quiz questions.

Good Morning,

Specialist Nurse rang back, hospital PSA test was 3.6, so they will offer retest in July before next appointment.

Thanks for all replies.

That's very good news. I think you should get things sorted so you can see test results on the app or internet before the next test. You're going to have to live with these tests for the rest of your life and NHS bureaucracy is not going to be getting better.

Dave64, wasn't there a Tory MP whose excuse for porn on his phone was that he was googling classic tractors and it "just popped up"? I don't think I'm going there.

Newbie, excellent that your husband's PSA levels aren't increasing. Fingers crossed for next time.

I'm sure many gentlemen on this forum will remember Mayfair Magazine in the 1970s had pictures of pretty ladies, interspersed with several page accounts of WW2 naval battles or steam trains and tractors, before the next set of pretty pictures. As a teenager I used to only look at the pictures and ignore the prose: now I read the articles and ignore the pretty pictures.

That's my excuse for having a stash of tractor mags, anyway.
