Enlarged Prostate...
I had a busy morning, making a sale, dropping off the check to the office, going through the factory to review some deliveries scheduled next week. All is good. On the way home I got gas and wanted to do a quick run through Walmart. Not a good idea as it was busy like they were giving things away!I had to pee and knew I couldn't hold it until I got home. No choice, so I went to the restroom in the store. All the stalls were empty... looks like they were shopping and not peeing. Standing at the urinal, thinking of the obligations for the rest of the day, I hear someone talking... I'm doing my best to ignore the guy, but he repeated himself a few times. He was asking me if I had to get up during the night to pee. I pulled my zipper up, stepped back and turned. My answer was "No" and to his surprise he said he's got an enlarged prostrate and has to get up to pee at least three times during the night.
TMI, isn't it?
Sorry, I'm not accustomed to striking up conversations at the urinal and distanced myself by walking the opposite direction from him to wash my hands.
It's a good thing he 'got the message' as I was prepared to tell him the whole world has an enlarged prostate... But, he walked out of the restroom still complaining about his prostate.

PSA 15 also... here.
So I been on my second biopsi on tuesday looking for you know what.
Was through the same 3 years ago and null then, we'll see.
A friend who is 10 years younger than me failed his PSA test and it was deemed he has cancer. He wasn't having any symptoms that would indicate trouble.
After several weeks of low radiation treatments of 3 times per week the cancer was gone. There was some minor discomfort from the treatment, but not painful.
That was 4 years ago and no news about cancer reoccurring.
I'm unable to envision the 'sponge' description.
