I was tested every year (PSA) for two decades, but missed a year. Next test showed PSA had skyrocketed. Biopsy showed stage 4 prostate cancer. It happened quickly.
Scans, surgery, radiation, hormone therapy followed.
Surgeon removed the prostate and some flesh where it had spread, but there are still aftereffects.
Good side: I am in Canada, so the cost to me was about $1,000 mostly for hospital parking, travel, and some drugs not fully covered. In the USA I would have died.
