He doesn’t have family history of Prostate Cancer. His father had enlarged prostate and his 3 brothers are younger without any history. His father passed away from Pancreatic, so we are definitely all about keeping up with of our health screenings.
My thoughts go out to you all for the difficult treatments you have endured and really appreciate your help with this!! I hope everyone stays healthy!!

Have you had genetic testing? My grandfather passed away from pancreatic cancer. Turns out he had BRCA2 and passed it on to his three daughters and then my cousin and me. I got prostate cancer, which my father died of and my brother has, but none of them are BRCA2. Since my father had it, it gives a much higher percentage that my brother and I would have it.
You can get free, genetic testing here

Just make sure you don’t pick the option to have your doctor involved. They won’t send you the spit tube that you returned to get the test until they speak to your doctor.
