Well, all that&#x27;s after the fact 20&#x2F;20 hindsight.<p>Initially, all he and his doctor knew was that he was 77 years old and his routine, approved by the powers that be, PSA test results took a worrisome turn, bad enough that a biopsy was indicated.<p>My father&#x27;s case only supports the Official Word, that starting at age 70 you should get PSA tests.  WRT to people making their own decisions, I highly advise that, if you&#x27;re 70 or older, to get regular PSA tests!
