On Tuesday a Biden spokesperson claimed Joe Biden’s last underwent a Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) blood test, a common way to detect prostate cancer, back in 2014.
“President Biden’s last known PSA was in 2014. Prior to Friday, President Biden had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer,” a Biden spox said on Tuesday afternoon.
Even CNN isn’t buying it.
“He was President of the United States and didn’t get tested? I find this very surprising,” a CNN anchor said in disbelief.

Wrong. I’ve had prostate cancer. I went through hormone treatments and radiation treatments both high and low dose radiation therapy. That was in 2016. The cancer was early stage and I get PSA tests every 6 months. I’m 73. My doctor and I want to know WTF is up?
Huh?
Ummm, no. Like Equine1952 I'm 73. About 6 years ago my PSA started rising, and it exceed the threshold of concern (4.0) a couple years ago. It rose to 7, which was worrisome, and most references consider that a "positive", but it went back down to 4 six months after that and hasn't exceeded 5 since then.
Fortunately the digital exams are still showing no irregularities. But if the PSA gets back up to 6 or more I'll be scheduling a biopsy (not looking forward to that).
I also have a condition called MGUS which is a pre-myeloma cancer marker, so I've gotta watch out for all that too. sigh.
I don't buy the "ignore prostate cancer after 70, something else will kill you first". My mom lived to 99, that's 26 years more than I am now. I'd like to give her a run for it.
I hope your PSA level stays low and your other worry’s disappear. The biopsy is a bitch but you’ve been through bad stuff at 73, so you’ll grit your teeth and handle it, if necessary. We all do. There are a multitude of treatments available for prostate cancer if caught early. I’ve been in the nuclear industry since my 20’s so radiation didn’t scare me, I chose it. A friend had his prostate removed. We both took about 3 months to recover. Doing radiation you have to go to treatment everyday for 5 days a week. You sleep at home every night for the time it lasts. Get it removed your in the hospital for 3-5 days and spend the next 3 months healing up. I chose my way. My friend did his. We both still get PSA tests every 6 months. Take care and be well. Regards.
Total BS. Its a $22 line item in a complete blood profile. And, the only people who stop getting tested after an age limit are persons who have insurance that won’t pay and no ability to pay the $22.
True. But the point I’m making is he never got a test from his gov’t doctors. If he was getting treated for it...it would have been on the side and never mentioned. Or the gov’t doctor just lied and said he didn’t do it.
My point is they knew it would show something so they didn’t officially do the test.
See my comment above...they don’t need an OFFICIAL test that they make public.
They lie.
No man over 55 does not get a prostate blood work test
And it is cheap.
Yup. The Mockingbirds just can't stop with the lies and misdirection.
You are correct.
Biden was run because he was obviously compromised. Just like the trans issue and the black violence issue and the trashed cities issue and the poor student outcomes issue we are supposed to ignore and shut up.
That Marxist Soviet web has been wrapped tightly around the country.
Looks like it is beginning to break.
They did the testing, they just never reported the results. Deniability.
Notice the weasel words: “last known” test was in 2014.
The issue really is not what’s “allowed”, it’s what the insurance will pay for. I wanted to get more PSA tests than my insurance “allowed”, and had Lab Corp. do them on my own. They cost 50 bucks each, including a doctor’s prescription. They didn’t even ask what my age was.
It’s apparent that there is so much misinformation in this GP article and comments that it’s hard to know where to start. This was touched on the other day in post 28 of this discussion “Morning Joe: ‘Very Troubling’ If Biden Doctor Found Elevated PSA But Didn’t Inform Public”. https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4317880/posts
Folks need to acquaint themselves with what a PSA test is, what it is good for and what it does not do. Go and research the genesis of the PSA test in 1986 when Dr. Thomas Stamey of Stanford developed the it… then read Dr. Stamey’s 2004 paper where he updated his findings with the conclusion that the results of the PSA test were not related to prostate cancer but elevated readings were related to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
I’m not interested in debating this issue with anyone and I’m not presenting the above as an oncologist….all I’m suggesting here is that folks need to do their own research into this issue.....and while the PSA test has some benefit, you will likely be sadly enlightened if you think that it was any kind of be all and end all indicator of prostate cancer. There is a ton of medical research that goes back to the findings of Dr. Stamey and his colleagues (and much since then) that can be accessed with a simple search… if you don’t agree with the above synopsis, go and argue with those findings and medical papers. All this entire episode with Brib’em has shown is just how difficult it is to stop a train of misinformation once it has had decades of being ingrained into the public perception.
I have a psa run every year...and I’m not even a politician...
He had the DUMBEST DOCTOR EVER !
Really is looking like Bidens 4 years were nothing but Bullshit.
Did they provide a reading of PSA values?
clearly with this stage of cancer, his routine blood panel (forget PSA) would be a mess.....
