  1. Hi I am glad you are seeing your urologist today to go over the results. I find that trying to figure out results in Mychart can be confusing, since we are not medical professionals. I hope your doctor spends the time with you today to go over everything and make sure you ask any and all questions that you have. If you are comfortable, please let us know what the doctor said and any next steps. Jill, prostatecancer.net team
