Hello Rascal01, this community is a great one and folks will share information, support, and their experiences over time. I don't have any direct experience with prostate health (being female) but wanted to share a trusted source with you as you wait for further testing: health.harvard.edu/topics/p.... I hope you have a safe and savory Thanksgiving!
