I just switched on BBC news and came across Stephen Fry giving an interview regarding his recent surgery for prostate cancer.
What he had to say made a lot of sense and I would urge all men on here to listen to his interview.
Stephen appears to be one of the lucky ones and caught it in time, which is of utmost importance.
Go get yourself checked it's only a blood test!!!
In the Netherlands the PSA test is standard part of a medical update
I have mine tested every 6 months at the Hospital in Rosario.
My Father in Law has Prostate Cancer but in the early stages, PSA Blood Test caught it early.
If you're a male over 50, get tested NOW.
I get mine tested every 6 months, I`m 57. I had a bit of a scare about 2 years ago, thankfully the biopsy came back clear. Very sore procedure for the biopsy
Like Stephen Fry, my husband had prostate cancer discovered purely by accident following a GP check for something else. He has been treated with radiotherapy and hormone injections. A simple blood test to check PSA levels should be made available to every male over 50.
