Male (30) As the title says im having a cystoscopy performed on wednesday next week and im worried about them not being able to pass the scope as i have a stricture at the head. I'm self diagnosing myself with the stricture but i can visibly see it, and the doctor said they may have to dilate to get the scope in, just wondering if anyone has had this issue before and what i should expect with the cysto and dilation
