PSA is not always recommended anymore because it leads to overtreatment. If your test suggests prostate cancer, relax and don't do anything rash. It's time to discuss it with your MD and look at your options. "Watchful waiting" is often the best. Many prostate cancers will never be life threatening. Still, it's good to know there is a potential problem.
