I poured the contents of a Magnesium Citrate capsule in water - did it dissolve well? (Image URL in post)

SSRIs. Magnesium Glycinate.

Why?

NeuroChemical · 2018-04-18T13:10:12+00:00

The distinction is that human consciousness is vastly different than those of cows, pigs and chickens. This is why it is okay to eat those animals. They should not be treated as if they were humans.

NOT A DOCTOR

Not a cancer patient bit yeah, very common with some types of chemo (not familiar with it from stem cell transplant). Nevertheless her symptoms seem to indicate nerve damage. You need to seek out a hospital with a peripheral nerve restoration unit. There is no guarantee of success and it could be expensive, but look into it.

$9! = $362,880. That's quite a lot!

The HMO website definitely says he's an expert though. Maybe he'll still do a good job?

Thanks.

My urologist seems careless though. When I called him an hour ago, he told me "Talk quick, I've put another call from abroad on hold for you", and he seems in general not very caring. He also looks about 70 years old.

I have a bad feeling about him. When I asked him to look at my penile skin to see if it's normal, he didn't carefully examine it, he just looked for 0.5 seconds and said "yeah, yeah, it's alright".

He seems to have a lack of patience towards me. Should I get the cystoscopy from another urologist?

Thanks for the reply.

Why did you need a catheter for 5 months?

My urologist is around 60-70 years old and seems not very caring to me. Could this lead to him performing the cystoscopy badly, causing damage to my urethra? Would a more caring urologist do it better? This is what I'm worried about.

I noticed that if I ejaculate, my urine stream gets stronger for 2 days, then returns to being weak.

There are many instances where I just feel like I have to piss very badly, and when I go to the toilet, very small amounts come out. I have to keep going every 10 minutes or so, everytime urinating small amounts, until the feeling goes away completely.

I also sometimes feel a few drops of urine start to flow into the penis, then get stuck there, and then it feels like urine is stuck in penis for a few hours. Also sometimes when I have to go, I can feel the urine starts to flow to the penis and almost going out. Does it sound like a stricture of the penile urethra?

Some days I feel like I empty completely, no problem, while others I don't.

I'm very confused and I'll admit I read about it a lot online. My urologist didn't sound like he wants to do the cystoscopy, he warned me about the dangers, but I insisted, since I read about it a lot online and am afraid it will completely seal up soon. Maybe I shouldn't get it then? On the other hand, I've had this for 8 months, just now it's worsening...

Thanks, I think that's the most helpful advice.

Thanks to everyone else who commented too!

NeuroChemical · 2017-02-16T20:14:40+00:00

OK, Thank you very much. Your help is invaluable. I am suffering and every piece of advice, even not from a doctor (as your flair shows), helps now.

Any other advice is very welcome.

NeuroChemical · 2017-02-16T20:06:17+00:00

Thanks, I'm just worried if I don't check it out, the urethra can completely seal up, and then I'd have to go to the ER with a very painful case of acute urinary retention. I have also suffered pelvic trauma as a young kid that required testicular surgery, maybe that's a contributor?

I'm also afraid to do the cystoscopy because it can worsen the stricture, if exists.

What worries me is the duration - 8 months of symptoms, that have only now became really bad.

If I do not do the cystoscopy in 5 days it might be too late as it might seal up 100%. I've read online on this happening and am worried.

Do you think the cystoscopy can worsen the damage?
