After weeks of not being able to go for a Pee properly I finaly got my checkup yesterday ...My symptoms were (are) a sudden need to go to the toilet which I cannot delay or I will lose a drop ! when I get to the toilet it would not be worth it and only pee about 100ml of urine may uretha on the end has shrunk dramaticly and I have slight pain by peeing .The Dr checked out my prostat and said it is enlarged but not un normal for my age 63 he did also a Utra Schall on my Bladder and found a Cyst or something it was pretty largeon the screen

So now I have a termin with him for urethral dilatation which he explaied to me how it is done and he will also be taking a look and a sample from this Cyst .Now My Question is this do any of you other guys who have this problem also have a problem with Sweating ? I all of a sudden break out in a sweat and it is terrible its mostly from my head and the top area of my body I check my Temp and its OK But the sweating is driving me crazy ! Yesterday I was walking down the street at Minus 2 C and sweating I must have looked very weird to whoever saw me

Thanks for reading

Stuart

      I had that Stuart. They remove the tumour via a rigid cystoscope. I had a couple of weeks off work. Stings to pee bit its not too bad to be honest. I highly recommend u join the fight bladder cancer forum. There are 2000 people on it who have all gone through it. When is ur op?

      Well they went back in on the 15th of April and found something else and also renewed the stent which was not sitting correct I have my results back and the doctor said something about a infection of the bladder wall and another tumor on the uretha so its back in for my 3rd OP on the 10 June They wanted me in in may and I said No I have had enough for now and asked for a later date (maybe crazy) So after my Holiday they can do what they want with me
