I'm sure this must have been covered before, but it's new to me. I survived lymphoma in 2023, now I fear prostate cancer. Yesterday, I had a blood test ahead of a routine physical next week. My PSA has always been in the "normal" range, between 3 and 4. But yesterday's results showed it jumped to 9.44!
I have already scheduled a check with my uro (who implanted me June 2024) for Friday, as my PCP is concerned. Not sure what my testosterone is now, as they failed to test for it yesterday. I have been on TRT for several years.
Am I looking at Prostate Cancer? Is it just an enlargement due to ... ? An infection?
Guess I just need to vent here, as I will find out more tomorrow.
Anyone else have their PSA jump that high?

Re: PSA jumps!
My PSA is always less than 1, and last year it jumped over 4. It came back down a month later, I had some form of prostatitis that was resolved via antibiotics.
