RIP. Good man. But can I remind all the men on here not to wait for symptoms to take a PSA test. I was very lucky, My PSA was 4.6 which my doctor told me was no worry not until it got into double figures (I've since had 2 mates saying they had over 4 readings and their doctors have sent them away). She gave me a digital test but the cancer was the other side of my prostate (yes the digit up the bum) which was also clear but the surgery had a 4 or more check it out policy. I had the scan and not only did I have prostate cancer but it had already broken out of my prostate into the surrouding nerves. They took out the prostate and the nerves but I still had a PSA reading so I got 6 weeks of radiotherapy and have been clear since. I want to reiterate do not wait for symptoms, if they offer you a PSA test take it and if it's over 4 question the doctor about not checking
