it costs less than that on some airlines so I think thats a very good

driving with the price of gasoline right now.

[OUT Q=not because of it]
((
According to national standards, a PSA count of four or below is considered normal. But Doctor Dennis Garvin says the problem is there are some cancers that don't' raise the PSA level -- and what's considered normal for one person may not be for another.
(///// SOT /////)

((I THINK THE PRIMARY CONCERN IS THAT 23 IN ALL AGE RANGES PERHAPS AS MANY AS 15 TO 25 PERCENT OF MEN MIGHT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT PROSTATE CANCER BUT YET NOT BE FOUND ACCORDING TO THE CRITERIA WE NORMALLY USE TO TRY AND FIGURE THIS BLOOD TEST OUT ))
[RUNS20]
[OUT Q=blood test out]
Doctors Garvin says several factors should be considered. A man's risk for prostate cancer increases with age. African Americans have a higher incidence of the disease. Family history plays a role. And the patients established baseline can help determine what's a normal for that patient.
