Morning
Rick has not been able to post to his blog Sicko Ricko's Crap due to a regional internet outage. The repair ETA is Friday afternoon.
"Since I'll be 40 this year I and decided to go for a full physical. New doc and very thorough. Asked all the right question about sex life and masturbation. Found a hard spot on my left nut so he's sending me for an ultrasound on that. and a blood test with a warning not to nut for at least 48 hours beforehand. what's the deal? Is that for my balls or what?"
Smart doctor you have there! No, he wants you to refrain from ejaculation prior to a blood test because cumming increases the PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) in the bloodstream. And those levels can remain elevated for up to 48 hours.
According to a report by the NIH (National Institute of Health (before wormbrain took over), ejaculation will cause a mild rise in the serum prostate-specific antigen. Certain medications can also increase those levels. But, because most physicians don't warn men, those increases have caused a number of men to be sent for unneeded prostate biopsies.
Be happy your doctor told you not to nut. He just saved you from the anxiety of a false-positive for prostate cancer, and a painful procedure. Facing the possibility of testicular cancer, that's the last thing you need.

Thank you! I did not know there how one impact the other! I learned something new!
Very good advice...
Likewise, a rectal exam isn't recommended before a PSA blood test... It can skew the results.
Best regards,

Yep.
Listen to your doctor!!!
PSA tests can be crazy all on their own. No need to go and make them crazier...
XOXO
That's right...best to wait. Just think of the powerful cum shot that will be!
Thank you!!
You're welcome.
It can. A physician should take that into consideration when reviewing the results.
True.
XOXO
LOL. The greater the velocity....
You're welcome!
About 20 years ago I had an elevated PSA test and was sent for a great doctor for what turned out to be several annual biopsies. Eventually he said it didn't look like it was going to turn into cancer. I'd figured by then that the elevated test was the result of my prostate being banged during vigorous receptive anal sex the night before the test. So avoid that for 48 hours before the blood draw! 5 years ago I had a mysterious elevated temperature for several months. Eventually my MD called for a PSA test which was very elevated, and after more tests it was determined there was a marble sized cancer growing in my prostate. A few months after that, 4 Cyberknife radiation treatments blasted it out of existence!
What a journey.... You had to figure that out on your own, though. Shame the doctor didn't think to tell you before the first biopsy. Then to end up with a marble tumor. Ugh. Glad you're doing well now!
Love how you always educate while providing nice eye candy to admire while reading.
