Once you reach Medicare age:
You guys can only have a PSA every 2 years.
Bone Density scans for Osteoporosis is every 2 years
Biopsy for Barrett's Esophagus caused by Nexium use every 2 years.

The last Mammo was so painful I don't want another one. And it cost over $3K as I do read my Statements from Medicare and Tricare Life.

If men had to go through one, this torture machine would be outlawed in 1 day. There are less painful ways to conduct one that cost about the same.

PS: That exam table in the cartoon is too short for me.

You can add Nerve blocks to the list, 3 per year. While I find them useless, many find they work for months of spine pain.
