A cautionary tale.

I am not sure if this belongs here and Ed will remove it if necessary

A few months ago I was feeling fine just having a bit of trouble peeing, no blood, no pain, just hesitant occasionally, so went to see the doctor.
He checked my prostate said it felt fine and  was probably stress but took blood for testing, just in case.
5 days later I got a phone call and was sent to see a Urology consultant for a cystoscopy. That night I was in hospital following an MRI and invasive biopsy.
3 weeks after that I was in hospital again for a HoLEP.
The consultant removed a 100gramme tumour and managed to keep it encapsulated within the prostate.
I have had several appointments and check ups since, and I am clear of cancer.

The moral, If you are having ANY issue with your waterworks go to see the doctor.

I had something very similar a few years ago my my prostate.
The sinking feeling when your doctor calls you with the results is something you can never understand unless you have experienced it first hand.

Fortunately mine was all clear (after loots of biopsies and tests), hopefully you stay clear
