[QUOTE="binky, post: 542316, member: 490"] I started early with the tests due to family history. I also knew an electrician who developed prostrate cancer in his forties and subsequently died because he ignored the symptoms until it was too late. I'm now 57, and my GP isn't interested that in testing me for prostate cancer because I'm considered too young. However, at my age I have been getting checks for other things, most of which seem to involve blood tests, and I request they take an extra sample for PSA, which is never refused. There's nothing stopping you contacting your GP to get a test done at any time. And if you are in with the nurse taking blood samples ( vampire squad as I like to call them) it's worth getting cholesterol, liver function etc tested for whilst you are at it. [/QUOTE]
