In recent years if one is over a certain age, they don't do certain examinations in the medical field. They figure that if one has a disease and they are older, they'll outlive the disease. They don;t do rectal exams on males, colonoscopies on those older or certain female exams.
Well, I had a problem the other day, I got up around 8 times to urinate and was dog beat the next day so I in my infinite wisdom decided it was time to see a Doctor. My PSA was 16 with the normal 1-3 and that might indicate prostate cancer or a case of prostatitis.
I am what one could call a fatalist in that whatever happens, happens. I am a Christian and have no fear of the final appointment. (it is appointed unto man once to die and after that the judgement) In fact, I look forward with great anticipation of seeing loved ones and the Lord Jesus. He has done so much for me and now I am up in years and all my friends have gone on in recent years but I have a loving wife who stands fiercely by my side in every situation.
So, all is not lost, if a prayer is made in my behalf, kindly detour it over the my wife who deserves it, not me. I'll keep you guys posted, the Doc put me on Proscar and Hytrin for a month and then I'll go back for more lab work and then possibly a referral to a urologist.

I can and do respect your words. Enjoy every day.

BCM95 curcumin and pumpkinseed oil. Also blackseed oil...look into those for lowering PSA, I will pray, you gonna be fine!

EDIT: came across this old study as well: Commonly used herbal product lowers PSA level in men with advanced prostate cancer, UCSF study finds
