Prostate cancer typically has no symptoms in its early stages. It only starts to show symptoms once it's grown significantly and started to spread. A physical exam (digital rectal exam) may not always detect it either, and (someone can correct me if I'm wrong) I believe they stop giving those once a patient reaches a certain age.
- dontTREATonme 1y agoThis is true for the general populace but not for the “important” or ultra wealthy. The VIPs will often get annual MRIs specifically to catch this sorta thing early, eg RBG, yes she eventually died from cancer but she had 6 separate cancers which all were detected early. Each time she was able to return to work after relatively short treatments. She was also old and at some point your body cannot fight anymore no matter how early you catch it. In this case it truly appears like he/they(ie his family) knew a long time ago but either he didnt want to admit it or they didn’t want him to (which would force him to step down). So instead they hid it from the public and did what SJ did. Aka nothing.
