Grumpy fought me and fought me over a colonoscopy. I finally just made the appointment and got the prep and MADE him do it. Guess who had several polyps. Doc told him his wife had likely saved his life. 
Go get tested guys. It's worth any temporary discomfort.

The docs diagnosed me with prostate cancer 5 years ago at 50, I did Cryo surgery and everything looked good.
Every 6 months I go for a checkup. Over the last year and a half my PSA’s gone up just a little and the doc said he’s not worried.
Did another PSA a week and a half ago and it more than doubled, had a MRI last week and met with the doc today.
Well now I get to do another round of biopsy's in a couple of weeks, sure not looking forward to it.
Like was said above get over your stupid pride or modesty and get checked fellas.

Good luck man. My crazy outta whack numbers for any number of things over the years have freaked me out more than once. Take a deep breath, go do what's gotta be done and live your life. Worry has never snagged a single man an extra day and cost him quite a few. Yep, I learned that one the hard way. My prayers are with you.
What scares me is if they want to do the “finger test” on me. There’s not one human on earth that doesn’t have baseball bats for fingers.
And that includes you ladies, my docs assistant on one of my checkups asked if I would mind if she checked my prostate, I was feeling cocky thinking she’s got small hands.
I think I had tears in my eyes when I stood up.

I'm not gonna post the laughing emoji thing but I just spot half my iced tea across the living room!
Get the test guys. If your doc will go along with it and you or your family do not have a history of it, you can probably do what I call the Poop In A Box test. Which is really just a smear test. Do not fill the box unless they really piss you off, or your are sending it your lest favorite political type.
I’m fairly confident that whatever I die of is going to be curable, but I refuse to go to a doctor.
My family tends to rely on heart attacks to save us from cancer. Though my dad had his final heart attack while they were trying to look at spots they thought were cancer on his tongue and in his lung. I'm 19 years older than he was when he had his first heart attack. Only smoked for a few months while I was a teen, he smoked for 40 years or so. I'll have an alcoholic drink every few years, he drank quite a bit his whole 77 years. It's possible he had more fun.I’m fairly confident that whatever I die of is going to be curable, but I refuse to go to a doctor.
I was never a fan of that test. Had an old doc one time that told me that nobody seems to enjoy it, but think of him. He's the poor guy that has to stick his finger in everybody's butt. Hard to beat a doc that has a sense of humor.
