Ben Stiller Goes Public With Being Diagnosed With Prostate Cancer at 48

Ben Stiller is talking for the first time about being diagnosed with prostate cancer at 48. Stiller, now 50, visited the Stern Show on Tuesday morning and told Howard how he and his doctor were able to detect and treat the disease early. "It came out of the blue for me," Ben told Howard. "I had no idea." Had he not gotten tested by his doctor, Ben's cancer could have gone undetected. Luckily, he was given a PSA, or prostate-specific antigen test, in his 40s, despite most medical professionals suggesting that prostate cancer screening not begin until age 50.
