Back from my medical procedure

That's great news, Larry - wonderful to hear!
I was only joking

Great news!

Time to insert the best urologist joke....
Urologist: "Now, Larry, it's not unusual to get an erection during this part of the exam."
Larry: "But, doc, I don't have an erection!"
Urologist: "I know. But, I do."
"Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08
The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

The doctor told me to take my clothes off. I said "where should i put them?" He said "just throw them in the corner with mine..."

(Cheap) Scotch all over my keyboard. I'd never heard that before.
Gonna share with my urologist friends.

Just remember, big prostate doesn’t iimmediatly imply big balls.
U have to grown them independently.

The great news, is that it's not cancer. The good news is that they can treat it with medication, if it's prostatitis.
And now, for the not as good news...some of the medication can cause a cessation of lessening of the issue of some body fluids...Just sayin'. Another problem is that a medication can work for awhile and then not work (that one happened to me). Older docs would advise a TURP (look it up), if medication wasn't working well enough. But there are some new procedures out there, that can help the problem without resorting to a TURP.
Always talk over any and all treatments with your doc...

@Jolly I always hated TUR-Ps.
There are so many things that can go wrong that are not exactly surgical, but can be a gas-passer's nightmare. I've seen one patient die in the
Recovery RoomPACU after a TUR-P.Newer (at least as of 4 years ago) procedures using targeted laser therapy to shrink the prostate seem to be much nicer in terms of blood loss and intra-op and post-op complications.
See "green light laser."
If medications fail, that's what I'd go with, with TUR-P as a last resort.
