So to intro a bit I have had urgency, to the point that my wife would get mad because she thought I was holding it to the last seconds. I finally after years of dealing with always making sure a bathroom was close and then assuming I just sweated alot down there and alot of getting up at night enough just to ruin the idea of sleep decided to go to the Doc, after getting the VA's blessing. My general practitioner did a few short questions and was like prostatitis and enlarged prostate with no physical exam.
So antibiotics and a flowmax which flowmax to me is the devil's drug. I definitely did not get better if anything I got worse so fast forward I got a referral to my urologist this is 2 months after my initial Dr visit and I hated flowmax so much I had to quit it. lucky for me the urologist is the same one that did my hernia repair and is a great guy. Knowing they would need a sample I did everything I could to make sure I could give him one. Got him the sample and go in to the examination room and he wheeled in a mini ultrasound machine I was really shocked I had just peed I should be completely empty right. No I have 257 ml still hanging around so he wants to put me back on flowmax luckily I convince him to try another med. So in 2 weeks I have a test urodynamic or something like that. Has any one gone through something similar? What have been your out comes.
