Blood work

Cbc, all liver makers - alt, ggt, etc. Hormones.
Kidneys, cholesterol, prostate, I can take a req form and tell you which ones to click off. If my doc orders something and I want something else checked I just check it off - she knows I do it and doesn’t care.
I don’t have time to go through the req form right now.

Wow what a great answer and help.
My old doc would print one off with checks from the computer ✔ so I couldn't do that. But now my new doc is cool used a pen so im sure it would be all good.
 
I would not bother with a PSA unless you are over 50, and even then, it isn't the most accurate test going. If you search for prostate, you will find some conflicting articles.

We can agree to disagree but you are absolutely correct - my doc even told me I would have to decide if it came positive - did I want to push further with more tests. A digital Test is worth while at minimum even is you don’t get a PSA test.
That being said - it is what we have to use and I get them done. I am close to 50 but still have a few years to go.
