Prostate Biopsy

[mazguy]

Thanks and my apologies for hijacking this thread but while on the subject of prostate cancer, I would encourage, plead or beg any of you over the age of 45 to get the dreaded digital rectal exam every year and not be content with the PSA test. When doctors catch it quick the solutions are simple. I skipped a few years so mine progressed unnoticed almost too far. Learn from my mistake.
Remember guys, we ALL have the prostate cancer cells growing at one stage or another so it's not a matter of if, but when.

Without hijacking this further, I'll stick to prostate exam..
While I would not enjoy getting digitized .. Its really not the patient with the issue..
Its the fact that doctors HATE doing it.. I mean who really wants to ask a Doc for the old finger.. nobody..
but its rare for any doc to offer it either

It's their job!

At some point during my first urologic visit, whilst I was still on the bed with my pants down, the doc asked "Sorry, can I put a finger in your ***?" It was hilarious. I didn't feel it at all btw.
