BBC Radio Scotland's Kenny Macintyre, 57, says early prostate cancer detection via routine PSA tests saved his life, urging men over 50 with family history to get tested.
BBC Radio Scotland presenter Kenny Macintyre, 57, revealed he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, attributing early detection to routine PSA blood tests that identified rising antigen levels despite no symptoms.
He has a family history of the disease, with three uncles affected, and credits regular monitoring for catching the cancer early.
Macintyre, who hosts Sportsound and Open All Mics, said he will take time off work but remains optimistic, urging men over 50—especially those with a family history—to discuss PSA testing with their doctors.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in UK men, with around 63,000 new cases and 12,000 deaths annually.
