PSA levels reading high after 2.5 years

[mike67]

anyone had issues with their levels rising while on TRT?
got a call from the doc and mine apparently has risen a lot from the previous bloodwork...im 48 and its a 2 and he wants me to come see him.i have a feeling he wants to take me off the test...

IMO don't let him overreact to a reading like 2... that's ridiculous. Do you have any noticeable prostate issues?

I'm sure you'll be retesting and by all means keep an eye on it, but 2 is well within range for your age.

2? "a lot"?

I'm not sure I'd even take the appointment.

no, actually he had just checked my prostate the same visit and found no abnormalities...
I didn't think 2 was a terrible number but apparenty it was quite a jump from my previous reading that he took notice....
ive already scheduled the appointment..and I don't wanna ignore him cuz he may decide to stop my refills if I do....he's a testy sort....
