I guess one of the threads I started got lost in the crash.

It's important enough, imo, to restore.

I learned that the blood test that can be an indicator prostrate exams, the PSA, must be taken before the Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) as the DRE itself can change the results, upward, if the blood is taken up to two weeks later.

So while your doctor (should) knows this and won't do the DRE first, those men among us who enjoy their subbie's wandering fingers during a blow job... or their mistress' finger, strap-on, or hand up their arse... or maybe you're just gay and like bottom role... we need to know this too.

'Cause you sure don't want your doctor ordering more invasive tests just because you like a little backdoor play.
