Being over 40 now, I'd much rather he take my word that there is nothing wrong with my prostate...

Yeah, I know...it really doesn't bother me that much. I mean, look at the consequences of leaving something easily treated in the early stages to be detected when it's too late?

Agreed. It's the same with colon cancer. Colonoscopies aren't fun (from personal experience!), but it's worth it to catch the cancer early.

I don't know about colonoscopies (yet...), but I DID have the Hubble telescope shoved up inside my bladder a few years back when they thought I had a kidney stone episode and they wanted to take a peek and ferivy both my kidneys were pumping urea fine.

That was a little...disconcerting...to say the least!
.
Then there were the three days afterwards where I was p*ssing razer blades...and sex was definately NOT on my mind at that time, either!
