Opinions on biopsy

I saw my urologist today. I had a 1.5 PSA rise over a 1 yr period,

with a 15% free PSA. The urologist says this is a no brainer, no more

test, do a biopsy. You have 25% chance of cancer. If we don't find

it now we will later. After biopsy if we don't find cancer we will

check for BPH. I'd like to hear opinions if you have to comment. My

PSA came in this month between 3.6 and 4, within two weeks of each other.

If he is so concerned for cancer why schedule me for a biopsy in a

month and wait. Also if you had the biopsy, I'd like to know how

irritating the procedure can be. They said the procedure is an plain

office visit.

Thanks for you help

Tony
