Bilateral Testicular Cancer, Had Benign Polyp. Done Radiation, Colonoscopy. Had PSA Tested. What Does It Mean?

I am age 51. 6'1'' 196 lb non smoker, 15 years ago was diag. with bilateral testicular cancer. had them removed and went through radiation. was told 99% no reoccurance. every year I get a check up and at 50 had colonoscopy, a benign palap was removed "everything else ok" I get my psa tested every year and its .002. Thoughout all of this time of exams I have noticed that my urine flow has been slowing. I am able to fully empy my bladder, I drink coffee all day long and recently have replaced afternoon coffee with water and am drinking about 32-48 ounces per day. I do usually wake up once in the night to go to the bathroom but that's it.
It seems like the flow may be slowing down just a bit more over the past few months...kind of like a kinked hose. no pain, no discolor in urine. My last psa was in Jan. and all clear then, what should I do to un kink the hose? or should I go back to my primary?

Did you check the size of your Prostate gland. Some time it is due to enlargement of prostate gland which the most common cause to reduction in urine flow at this age . You can get relief from some Ayurvedic medicines like Gokshuradi gugulu and chandra prabha vati .
