Three months ago I was checked by a Urologist at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (one of the 10 best in the nation according to US News & World Report! They won't let you forget that!! 'We're up there with the Mayo Clinic and Johns Hopkins and Columbia Presbyterian and Barnes Jewish!!!!') who noted that I had a "small" prostate which is supposedly a good thing.

Well ...

Two weeks later I got a call from the Urology Dept stating my PSA levels were elevated. They insisted I come into the hospital for half a day to have something like 30 biopsies done on the organ. I requested to be "put under" but because I came alone and without another person to take me home, they used only local anesthesia.

What unbelievable pain! I wanted to die! I was hoping I would just die right then and there. A decade and a half ago I had kidney stones and the pain caused by this procedure was even worse.

There was blood in my urine for a week after that. That's right: pink pi$$! Even worse: the next three weeks my semen was red and bloody!!! Enough to totally freak your partner, spouse, girlfriend, boyfriend, Asian massage therapist or casual pick-up out!!!

Yikes!

PS ... the tests were all negative.
Glad you're OK now....I feel your pain....when I had my "problems" down there the Doctor said the pain was as bad as childbirth.

So I understand your pain and "girls"....YES....men have problems too and I now am very sympathetic about childbirth..... but you are all not alone in the wrenching pain department......ROFL....OUCH!!!!!!!

Acute prostatitis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Testicular torsion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I lucked out and had BOTH at the same time!

As Doctor Smith would say....."Oh the pain....the pain"!!!!!!
