Thank you all so very much for your kind words, regarding Doctors, we met one of my wifes former pupils that had graduated to become a GP, we asked how it went, and she said the pass rate threshold is 40% so it means they only know 40% and the remaining 60% of time they are just guessing.
My goodness, Terrano diagnosis issues are fixed better than this lol...
My impression of doctors is they go along with the 90% cure rule, people go in with certain conditions, in 90% of the cases the pill works... so end of.
It's the 10% they don't care about.
You have to be persistent, even getting my last appointment took 2 weeks, unless I phoned in a pot luck queue every morning at 8:00am along with 100's of others, then if a place is secured, then you wait over an hour in the waiting room.
Re the waxoyl... I did look at the tin, and there were no warnings of increased levels of PSA from using this product, lol
I expect the outcome on Wednesday following another urine test and "probe" will be where next, scans etc... maybe biopsy, so might be a few months before treatment starts. Early days as they say.
I wonder if my recent shoulder surgery has knocked my imune system about, they said it would take a while to recover, another side effect since that op, in March is what little hair I had was nearly white, now it's all white...
All white on the night lol... Coincidence I guess.
Sorry to hi"jack" this particular thread, but I find most men don't talk about this sort of thing with each other, but when you do, you find they too get up several times in the night, have urgency to go, plan long journeys with loos in mind, or avoiding drinking before journeys, not completely emptying your bladder and driibling etc.
We men accept this as a sign of getting old, it's simply a sign of an enlarged prostate, most are benign, some aren't an issue at first, doctors often take the approach of let's see how it goes... hmmmm. with occasional PSA blood tests, but doctors know these are un reliable, so tend to ignore high results... :doh
So guys, if you are having these issues, then a quick trip to the docs might be called for, the PSA test is a guide but opt for the physical examination... no big deal, takes 10 seconds, you are lying on your side.
