PSA Testing
The male members over 40 might be interested in this. Also
anyone who knows a man over 40! So that’s everybody in effect.
I recently received an email regarding home PSA tests from the
charity behind the testing that the Lions Club organised in 2016 and 2017 to
say they had perfected a home testing kit in lieu of testing events which have
obviously been cancelled this year. (The Lions Club used a different
organisation or organisations to process the 2018 and 2019 events apparently.)
I signed up for one, received it, took my blood sample and sent
it back. They processed it on receipt and emailed the results within 24 hours.
Interestingly my account also had a record of the previous two tests I had done
through them.
The blood sampling is a little fiddly, necessitating “milking”
your little finger to collect blood droplets in a tiny tube.
But if you think you can cope with that, I thoroughly recommend
this service.

Tip: make sure your hands are warm and stand up to ensure you
hand is below your heart.
(You may receive an email from them directly if you were, like
me, one of the participants in the earlier test, but hopefully you have found
the information that I have successfully used the procedure helpful.)
