Hey Guys
My first blog entry, bit serious but important, since author/actor Stephen Fry cam out and talked about his bout with prostate cancer, I thought I would stand up and say I have had it to, originally found through a routine blood test, as I have reached that certain age, were luckliy my doctor, wanted me to have a medical overall. Well after some surgery and radiotherapy I am now offically clear.
If your in your 50's plus ask your doctor for a blood test (PSA in the UK not sure what tests are done elsewhere).
Prostate cancer kills men and it has reached a level on par with breast cancer, so get checked out.
For you younger guys too, aint gonna leave you out, testicular cancer affects you, so get in a rountine and check your balls for any lumps or bumps and if there is anything your worried about get it checked out....

I check myself regularly & advise other guys to do the same. Better being a healthy wrestler than dicing with potential serious illness or even death.
Take care wrestlers!

2018-02-25 22:18Hey wrestlers, Check with your local hospital or Cancer center, I did, and I was able to get a PSA(same as the U.K.) and a DRE ( digital rectal exam) done for FREE. Do it for yourself, but do it for all of the people in your life.
