yes But BPH is enlarged ... is there any possibility elevated PSA is due to BPH ..I know BPH is non cancerous.. He is almost 60y ears old.. and prostate size is 63.6gms. .. how much possibility is there fr cancer and non cancer...
 
My Dad had,,Enlarged Prostates,,,

Symptoms were,,,,,,,,,,,,Sudden attacks of shivering, Morning & Evening as if it was programmed to come on that time only,,,
Urine test revealed Infection & only when CT scan was done Enlarged Prostate was shown The reason for all the trouble.

Had to be operated.

It may be just an Enlarged Prostate also,,,Nothing to worry as such in that case,,,
Cancer part no idea Bro..
Hope all gets well......

my dad don't have those trouble like shivering... had pain but after using medicines slight relief is there..


This doctor making us panicked ... saying possibility is more because 4.44 TPSA.
 
@danger007 Bro can you share what problems uncle is actually facing, checking with symptoms would help us to determine what the actual problem is. Though i am not any doctor or anything like that, but i can help you as much as possible through data on internet.
