Ya Tony, Doc said come back in 10 years for another check. Can't wait.

well that is good news anyways:banana:

Ya, just a routine checkup thing. They like to do that every 10 years, if they don't see any issues, when you get old. Like 55, 65 and 75 years old. Then they stop doing it. Guess they figure if you make to 85 that's long enough, we're not checking any more. :butt1:

UPDATE: Well I've been off all my meds except for Spiriva & Proair (for COPD) for over 2 months now and haven't had a breathing treatment or been in the hospital. I have more get up and go now.

I did go in to See the Urologist on Sep 7th for that scope test. He promised me it wouldn't hurt and only take 30 sec. BULLSHIT I SAY, that hurt like something I wouldn't wish on my enemy. Thinkin about taking him to court as its 2 1/2 months since the test and still hurts to pee. I know its not some kind of infection or something like that. Keep ya'll updated.

I had the scope thing done a while back and it didnt hurt at all for me ,hope you get it figured out .

Have you seen a different Dr Ken? Might give you an idea of what is going on.

Glad you're feeling better overall Ken. You may be right, some kind of infection because it shouldn't still hurt.

Speaking of getting old. Saw the ortho Doc a week ago. Pain in my right shoulder, tingling, numbness and pain in my right arm during the night. I'm sure it has to do with all the work I've been doing outside over my head. Just wanted a cortisone shot. He said he wanted to get some x-rays of my shoulder and neck? Why the neck, it feels fine? Well x-rays show some arthritis on several vertebrae, he said that may be pinching the nerves and causing the numbness and tingling. Told him I wanted a cortisone shot any way, it did help a lot.

Back when I went into the hospital with "TIA" (stroke like symptoms without really having a stroke) with the numbness and tingling on the left side. All the tests they did came back great....but I still had a little numbness and tingling. I ended up going to a Chiropractor (hospital doctors and my regular doctor frowned at the idea) and he did some xrays of my neck area. I see an injury here that looks to be about 50 years old. Well 49 years ago I was in a car wreck where I hit the windshield frame with my forhead, upper steering wheel just below my nose, lower steering wheel with my chest and knees into the dash. How the hell did he know that (50 years old) just by looking at that xray? Anyways he said I had 2 vertebrae that were starting to grow together and pinching a nerve. He put me on a stretching table (the rack....lol) and since then all symptoms have gone away

Ray, look into seeing a Chiropractor to see if he can help ya.

Now that you mention it Ken, I was rear ended decades ago. Not as bad you but it did bounce my head around. Couldn't pin point anything specific but I just felt really weird for days. Can't really describe it but things just didn't feel right.
