PSA Blood Test: Prostate test could 'save lives and embarrassment'

Prostate cancer is a slow growing cancer.
Usually removal is treatment.
However colon cancer will get you

 

recommended up to age 70, as per my doctor.

as it is slow moving, if you get it after 70, you'll die before it gets bad. I guess.

had one 2 years ago with my annual blood work, last one.

 

Many labs bypassing the doctors and offering PSA blood test to general public.

 

PSA been part of my annual blood work for 20 years as it should be for everyone who’s getting vintage

 

Well, yeah, got to treat it before you die. I'm sorry, a LOT of money is being spent by old people on healthcare, it's the part of aging I'm having the most trouble with. I think the advances in medicine are great, if you are 50, or younger, and a full life is possible, but at 70, I feel like telling them to kiss my aXX, and go bilk the next poor sap. A little ####y you say? Perhaps by attaining 70, I can say that, but I see the anguish and monetary destruction these people face as they get older, there wouldn't be a healthcare system if it wasn't for us old folks, and they know it. I'll admit, I was lucky, my sister died at 41 of a brain tumor, and I've determined it's a total crap shoot on who lives and who dies.

 

Well then f it, get a lounge chair, cooler or ice cold frosty beverages, a bag of pretzels or popcorn and watch the #### show unfold. Might aswell enjoy what’s left then.

 

I hear ya, I'm still healthy as a horse at 71 1/2, (more or less), and will continue doing the maintenance visits.

kinda like an old car.
