I recently had my yearly physical, My doctor brought up an issue that really surprised me, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2001 and had it removed, I was clear after that with low PSA level, however this week my Doctor asked me to see a Urologist because of an abnormality with my PSA level.
I am curious and baffled on why my PSA went up (16)
I need your medical advice. Thank You
