Well done Nick Owen.
We really need to get the message out there about men of a certain age and getting regular checks and to get checked out if you are worried about anything.
I’m in a higher risk category and need yearly checks which doesn’t bother me. Rather that than catching something later down the line.
What’s your risk?

“I was classified as palliative, end-of-life care … and now I’m not; I’m asymptomatic.”
Been a hectic week this week. Monday I had day surgery to remove a JJ Stent from my left kidney. Then Wednesday I had my 3 monthly check up for my Prostate Cancer (PSA has gone down again, so that's good). Thursday was Nordic Walking lesson and today was big shop day. Looking forward to parkrun and 5K Your Way tomorrow to complete a busy week!

With a #ProstateCancer diagnosis, it's critical to decide between treatment and non-treatment. This cancer researcher walks her father through his diagnosis. https://medium.com/wise-well/prostate-cancer-treatment-is-not-always-the-best-option-a-cancer-researcher-walks-her-father-6998013854c1
MRI scan could screen men for prostate cancer
New method could improve detection of prostate cancer over rather poor PSA tests. Further tests required to validate the approach.
In the UK alone, 52,000 people are diagnosed each year. With black men having a 1/4 chance, twice that of white men.

Improved Prostate Cancer Screening Test:
Combining genetic information with conventional Prostate Specific Antigen, PSA, test results sharpens the precision and the predictive value of conventional PSA tests.#psa #prostatecancer #genetics #precisiononcology

Reminder that #masturbation is good for your #health!
#SelfPleasuring has been shown to have clear #psychological benefits, for #SelfEsteem, self #empowerment, #BodyPositivity, and for the relaxation and primal pleasure it brings.
#Orgasms release chemicals which are good for your body and brain, and move your blood and muscles in a health-promoting way: orgasms promote #heart function and #BloodFlow and #BloodPressure!
#Ejaculation, male and female, releases substances being stored in the body long-term, keeping seminal and vaginal fluids fresh and flowing, flushing out stale stuff and toxins, preventing everything from overgrowths and #UTI to #ProstateCancer!
MASTURBATION IS GOOD FOR YOU! Don't let people lie and tell you otherwise! Remember that #NoFap is an #AntiScience cult!
Please, for your own good, masturbate: your body literally evolved to have regular release!

Men, fellas, chaps...can I encourage you all to please not ignore any #prostate issues but get it checked out. Get a PSA test done even if you've no symptoms. As a #prostatecancer survivor with my 3 radiotherapy dot tattoos, I want to assure you that if not left too late, treatment works well. The hardest part was having to keep still in the scanner whilst listening on headphones to #StevieWonder Superstition😄 #menshealth #ThankYouNHS

Another day, another hospital visit. Yesterday was a pre-op assessment prior to having a JJ Stent removed, #today is my regular three monthly Prostate Cancer check up. Looking forward to tomorrow and the rest of the week when it will be back to normal, that is Nordic Walking, #gardening, the #allotment and #parkrun

My Mum had a #hysterectomy when she was 19. Dad was diagnosed with #prostatecancer 21 years ago. They are both now in their early 80s. So very, very lucky. I miss them. It's been 6 years since the last hugs.
You know the worst part (right now anyway) of dealing with surgery for #prostatecancer? Having to work between now and then.
