718260 2008-11-09 03:52:00 This has been a fun thread which has given me some chuckles.
And so far, I've resisted the temptation to add to those.

But by now I think I should add to the serious stuff - particularly for you fellers. just in case it makes a difference to even one person.

Prostate checks:

My Mr Laura had no urinating symptoms.

He had a GP check simply because I insisted on it ( because of age) when he accompanied me to my own regular checkup.
The GP did a finger test & a PSA blood test.
The finger test was fine.
A few days later, a phone call said the PSA test needed a follow-up...

I'll not detail the next 3 years, just say that I finally lost my lovely feller in 2005 after we went through just about everything today's medicine knows to bring a cure - but ultimately just ended up by delaying death.

This is to say - forget the jokes about the finger test.
It's not accurate, anyway,
The PSA blood test is what you should have to be more sure.

but is it normal for the doctor to kiss my neck when he does the digital exam???
