Thanks for asking at Healthcare Magic. I read your question and I understand your concern.
High PSA level with Hypercalcemia is suggestive of lytic lesion in bones. The commonest site is lower back.
As your biopsy was normal then I would suggest you to do MRI lumbosacral spine and bone scan to settle with dilemma.
Hope it helps best.
