4. I biked to PSA draw; it was 2 mile flat bicycle ride from home to doctors office.
From you comments, it seems that it makes sense to stay off standard upright bicycle with narrow seat. What about a recombant or a split seat on my upright?
Barring that, what about walking?
I need to make clear that I have no car. This is my only form of transportation (walking/bicycling).
Also, when you say 2nd opinion on Biopsy results, do you mean 2nd biopsy or do I ask the urogolist to take two sets of samples, one for him and one to send to someone else? If so, who would I send it to? I don't know of anyone else in Bellingham? Would I send it to someone in Seattle? I am guessing Vancouver BC is out as it is in another country and insurance would laugh.

What were your Gleason numbers???
Walking is fine. A thick padded bent seat is better than a diamond frame seat, HOWEVER, if a DF is all you have TO RIDE then the Hobson seat

A
3T mp MRI will show PCa location far better than a TRUS can and is more current than a
1.5T MRI
