this is about the drs but not the rap one
prostatecancer911.com
its about doctors digital rectal exam
now it seems the women are happy they dont
have to have all those pap smears anymore
so
it may be with men
we may not have to have the finger wave anymore
of course if the dre goes away
what will happen with all those jokes
like
this is going to hurt you more than me
sorry i wear size 9 gloves
drop em and bend over
grab you ankles
theres more but ill stop there
now a study showed that doing a dre really didnt make
much difference in diagnosing prostate cancer
maybe doing just a psa prostate specific antigen blood test would
be just as good
even with its false positive and false negative results
it appears that may be the case
now the us preventative task force doesnt recommend the psa
test anymore
now though
this study does recommend it
so whats a doctor to do
so whats a patient to do
now as a doctor and as a patient
i plan to follow the path of least resistant
since
i have to have blood each year anyway
ill just
skip that finger wave thing
do the psa test
knowing if its positive
it could still be a false positive
but if its negative
then thats reassuring
but it may really be positive
well i guess
after reading about all this
there is no good answer
