Default Urgent Request To All The Males On This Forum

I just returned home from the hospital after prostate surgery for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). My request to all the men on the forum (and to all the ladies for their men) is to get yourself (or your man) to the doctor have have the tests done if you are over 40. Better to be safe than sorry.

(yes, I know this is not a H-D topic but so be it).

Hopefully the doctor didn't have both hands on your shoulders as you were getting the examination...[:'(]

Sure it's a topic... cause you can ride a full tank of gas if you aren't having to pee all the time.

Seriously, hope the recovery goes as well for you as they most always do these days. Had the Big C Scare there a few years back and all is great now. It is the virtually cheapest & quickestcancer/other problems diagnostic check that there is. Good reminder!!!

It's all good. Unless you hear 'you might feel a little p.r.i.c.k'..

reminds me of an emergency room visit I had last year. After a bad fall of about 15 ft, Dr says to me I'm rolling you over I have to check you out internally. In a drugged up stupor I says to the Dr. " let me see your hands" he shows them to me. " Good you have small fingers"

I wish you well in you recovery.....

As the Dr. puts his glove on, and puts a squirt of the KY on the glove, he tells me:

"Now this is where the friendship ends!"

EyeSpy - no, but with BPH, it is not comfortable.

Big Sled - my mileage is measured by 'rest stops' not gas stops. What a pain in the a**, no pun intented.
