Default Re: PSA test and prostate cancer

black69, glad to hear that your bladder cancer ordeal has worked out.

I went through something similar a few years ago when I had my prostate surgery and the doc checked my bladder and found a tiny polyp and removed it. It was so small that the lab tech couldn't even do full testing on it, but he was sure it was cancer. Anyway, I just didn't have confidence in that doctor and decided to find another and this new one checks me out annually and so far, no mas, thank God.

I also did some of my own research after that situation regarding cancer, and bladder cancer specifically, and found that many, many times people have these types of stagnant cancer cells in their body for their entire lives and they are never negatively affected by them. And, the research stated further the stress of someone finding out they have some, any, form of cancer has far more negative affects than the cancer ever will. Always, always do your research and get multiple opinions. Doctors are wonderful most of the time, but they're still just fallible men.
