    Its normal to have those
    Its normal to have those feelings of anxiety before your psa test! I still do and I'm almost at the 2 year mark. Let us know your result and we will all be hopping for a good result on the test!

    I agree with Lewvino. I
    I agree with Lewvino. I still have those feelings, too. In fact, when they're drawing the blood, I stare intently as it goes into the vial trying to see if I can determine anything with my naked eyes. Of course, I can't but it doesn't stop me from trying.
    Keeping my fingers crossed for another zero for you, mattman!
