70, IMHO, seems a bit young to just toss aside a potential cancer diagnosis..

That's the problem. This is a long time deal. At 61 I forwent the biopsy as the promise of treatment would have cost me my job, hence insurance, and bankrupted my wife if the dire predictions came true. The doctor then was very much a money grubber. He started treatment before any biopsy. He,was quite apparently wrong then becayse 14 years later im still here. I knew second hand a man who spent 2 years undergoing chemo, radiation, castration, lost everything and died anyway. My decision then was to buy the farm.
