    Got mine by post last week. It was a low number so there wasn’t any urgency in posting it out

    Received mine by email early last week, with a green icon and a 'normal' test result for my age (over 70). Thanks to CAFC for facilitating this, and to the Graham Fulford Charitable Trust for providing the service.

    Some of the comments about PSA tests on page1 could be misleading.  As well as identifying possible inflammation/enlargement and infection, a PSA test can be an indicator of the growth of cancer cells. However, as also pointed out the PSA test is unreliable for cancer screening partly because a high reading can be as a result of other causes. I was part of a university health survey and at 59 years of age my PSA was slightly higher than expected and a further 6 months later was slightly higher again.  A couple of prostrate biopsies revealed a cancer with a combined Gleason of nearly 10.  I had no other indicators, I was never up and down from my bed to visit the loo and had no pains etc.  The cancer had not broken out of my prostate and following a robotic radical postatectemy I had no side effects and 14 years later the greater threat to my well-being is a Belgian and on occasions the Charlton defence!

    All clear and very low score. So relieved.

    Reading up on it all while waiting for the results I read that ejaculating over 20 times a month helps to reduce the chances of getting prostrate cancer.

    So, not only do you not go blind.....

    I can’t help thinking you are doing it all wrong.

    Are sure you are not mixing up a JR with breaking wind in the bath?

    I didn't get mine for 3 weeks so emailed the address on the blurb they handed out at the test.
    They promptly "re-sent" the result email, which I immediately received (albeit I had never received the original and wasn't in my spam)
    Amber result, but follow up looks more encouraging for me.

    Best of luck with your follow up. Little to fear if issues are recognised early, as yours seem to be.

    Thanks @PeterGage.

    The other routine tests are showing no abnormality.
    The plan is to have another PSA test in one month and review/monitor the situation.

    There was about 15 men who did not tick the box for their results on how to contact them. I am not sure who these men were. Please email info@thebkpca.com and they will be able to help.
