CancerTesting

The threads on prostate cancer and a couple individual posts include advice to be tested frequently. But, what to do if you can't be tested?

After my last colonoscopy the surgeon told me that was my last one. I was now too old for testing. Then my primary care provider, an internal medicine MD, told me neither PSA nor manual prostate testing was appropriate any longer. In fact, for elders, apparently no colon or prostate cancer screening is the new standard.

Is that your experience?
