Hello all,
For the last 2.5 weeks I have had some strange urinary symptoms. Sometimes feel like a pressure like I need to go even when I don't. Some days worse than others. I have had two urine tests done and both were normal. No blood, no infection. I asked my urologist about prostate cancer and he said that would be incredibly rare in someone my age (34). My PSA has gone up a little bit the past few 3 years because I'm on testosterone therapy for low testosterone. My latest PSA two weeks ago was 1.4... so still under the 2.5 threshold where they would normally pursue it.
He also gave me a prostate exam (yikes) and said everything felt normal.
I know prostate cancer in my age is super rare (so rare it's listed at 0.0% incidence rate on the SEERS website for 30-34 year olds, 0.4% of bladder cancers are in my age group). The UK cancer stats database also shows 0 / 100,000 people for prostate cancer in my age group and also 0 / 100,000 people for bladder cancer. So, I know I would be dealing with a situation generally with less than a 1 in 100,000 risk. But, still can't shake that something is wrong with me :/
