I know this isn't the proper place for this, but since you folks are all likely over 50, I'm going to preach very briefly.

During a routine physical exam last March, I had a slightly elevated PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) reading. A reading of 4.9.  The doc said it was probably nothing, but did a biopsy and found early stage prostate cancer.

I'm taking radiation therapy and will almost certainly be OK.  Please, get tested.  It's easy.  Most large hospitals have free screenings once per year.
