General Terms:

Normal PSA no urinary symptoms.........nothing to worry about.
Normal PSA with urinary symptoms.......see your GP could be prostate problems.
Raised PSA could be Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy, Prostatitis or Cancer.

Normal. PSA anything over 8 n/ml.

PSA not a particularly good diagnostic test but great value in evaluating response to treatment of Prostatic Cancer.

We watched the series twice it is so good.
