I get physicals, but most men die with prostate cancer, not from it.
I was happy when they recommended not testing older men, the exact age escapes me at this moment. It was cruel to diagnose and then treat elderly men in destructive ways for a disease that was unlikely to cause them harm.
For younger men it gets more complicated. They are more likely to have aggressive cancer if they have cancer, but are very unlikely to have cancer in the first place. You have to do many more biopsies with risk and sonograms with cost to find those rare cancers.
Nobody in my family has lived long enough to get diagnosed with prostate cancer so I had planned on skipping the PSA all together.
That was a long winded way of saying, yes I agree with you.
