i was a very brave little soldier today. it was time to take one up the arse, the old prostate check.
about a year ago my long time family doctor flew the coop and i had to find a new doctor. the old doctor was a woman and the new doctor is a man. for some funny reason i feel more comfortable having a woman poke me in the arse than a man. so it goes.
i'm happy to say the old prostate is in good shape and i now feel as though i know the new doctor a little better. all the blood work came back fine too. i laid off the candy and ice cream for a day before getting my blood taken and since there was cholesterol test involved i had to fast for 12 hours. i had a big bag of ju jubes waiting for me in the car. i skipped breakfast before today's ordeal and had a pair of giant chocolate chip cookies from my favorite bakery waiting for me in the car.
arse be fine, blood be fine, urine be fine........
so i got all that going for me too, which is nice.
i love you sons of bitches.

You're a bigger man than me, dude !
I'd run like hell from a wazoo test !
Congratulations on the clean bill of health. A woman's finger must be better than a man's - less thick with a more delicate touch. Men are supposed to have a g-spot near their prostate. Hope she'll find your one.
heff - a bigger man for about 30 seconds.
gb - yes, i like being touched by women.
I'm glad to hear your ass and blood and urine are all fine. Harah for ice cream!
How do you get a turtle to come out from hiding in his shell? Poke him in the arse.
;-)
A little finger up the arse and most you guys turn pale - sheesh,I guess there's good reason why men don't go through child-birth. Still, glad to hear everything that needs to work for you still does!
When I mentioned prostate exams to my Doctor when I turned 50 he turned green and changed the subject. He's about 20 years younger than me. Yesterday when I went to see him he had a pretty young P.A. student from Ohio State do the initial exam. Had to keep my clothes on. I may bring up the prostate exam again when I go back the 29th. I'm willing to give her a chance to learn. Of course if she says to take off my cloths I might just tell her you first.
Glad your crap is all the way it should be. (wait,that didn't come out right.)
charlene - i'd be lost without ice cream.
charlene - yup, behold the turtle, he only makes progress when he sticks his neck out.
shrinky - i can't understand why women would have a second kid after the pain involved with the first one.
mr wit - do they do the psa test too. it seems to me that the psa test should be enough.
I'd feel better about a woman doing that too, you're a brave man.
tex - on the other hand not taking the finger might make me a braver man for living with the uncertainty of prostate cancer.
maybe the government will start handing out free prostate shots with the free flu shots ;)
Nice to hear all is well Billy and everything is still in good working order. And glad to know the new doctor has a delicate touch. Take care.
Wait....You can get WOMEN to do that ?
All of a sudden, I'm standing a little taller....
He did do the PSA on me but my insurance only payed for part of it's cost.
In 80 I had the full camera up the wazoo. That was back before they learned to miniaturize the electronics. It was like having it done in IMAX format.
mr shife - another thing you have to look forward to when you turn 50.
heff - not only that, it was her idea!
mr wit - our psa test costs depend on what box the doctor checks. my old female doctor always checked the "patient pays" box, my new doc checked the "no charge" box. men are little less rigid when it comes to following the rules.
Good beer drinking song, I should give that a shot someday.
I don't get those tests anymore, I'm trying to get off this fucking rock, not stay on it.
You want anything of mine when I check out? Like that cute Honda 150 scooter?
glad your ass is as clean as a whistle..I need to have one done too, plus a full exam and a mammogram..ugh
billy - i'd love the scooter.
yellowdog - sigh, says it all.
My doctor just prescribed a new prostate med for me, but it has some strange side-effects. Apparently the brain and prostate are very similarly functioning organs; the med shrinks my prostate and apparently my brain with equal effectiveness.
I don't know if it has effectively reduced the amount of times I need to go to the bathroom or causes me to forget how many times I did. Either way, seems to be working.
