Only had one Bendover test -followed by a PSA test followed by a Radical prostatectomy. Since then- a 6 monthly PSA with the result being a big fat "0"

Glad my doc was on the ball.

Edit--- I had no sign of prostate problems and called into the Doc on a different matter. He just said you are of that certain age so bendover. The PSA count came back at 16 and Biopsy showed cancer in all 6 samples.

So I was lucky in that a PSA test showed I had a problem-The Biopsy showed I had a big problem.
