haha textushhog i saw a urologist a few months back for my annual test, he did a prostate exam on me. I thought " this should be easy" and it ended up hurting like hell, and the next day i still had issues.
with the right gal, it can be quite pleasurable. Just make sure you prep first. and report back your findings. Just make sure they wear a small glove, not a large. If you notice the "L" on the box, decline immediately :0

You need a new urologist. The medical community can read more about the prostate from blood work.

Of course what to do if you have a positive digital exam is still very much dependent on individual circumstance, the inclinations of your oncologist/urologist, etc.
