Get the annual check. As undignified as it is. The PSA is just a blood test which they can throw in with the routine panels for your annual check-up.
As I understand it, PC has very few symptoms until it's too late. "Feeling good" isn't really an accurate gauge.
1poorMIL has kidney cancer. But it's slow-moving, so they don't want to do anything. They just monitor it. They expect she will expire before it becomes a problem. She feels fine, at least as far as her kidneys are concerned. They only caught it by chance.
