welcome to getting old.

Yeah middle age sucks, but this is something different. I’m guessing they’ll wanna look at the size of the ol’ prostate.

Dad, any updates on your pee?

steady, strong, and clear!

Great update! Thank you. I hope this holds true for you for the rest of the day.

This started bothering me during waking hours yesterday, so I went in to see the doc today. Some abnormalities in my urine sample that could point to an infection, so I’m starting a round of antibiotics. Should know if it’s that in a couple days if I improve. We’re going to Mexico for a week on Sunday, so’d be nice if I was feeling better by then.

oh dear good luck!

My piss currently looks like Hi-C Orange due to some pain meds I’m taking. My wife can now easily see any splatter I leave behind. What a nightmare.

bro, hydrate...

It’s a known and acceptable side effect of pyridium. Hydration wouldn’t matter.

yup sounds familiar

Leaving for vacation Sunday, so I’ve been doing whatever I can to expedite a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Got in to see my primary Tuesday, who referred me to urology. I managed to get an appt with urology yesterday, who ordered a CT scan to figure out what’s going on. I immediately started calling around to find a scan appt for today, and did so with a different hospital.

I planned to get a disk of the images before I left my scan appt, to then drop off at my hospital’s urology today. Otherwise this all takes days/weeks. It was all so perfect until I finish my scan earlier and they tell me their machine is acting up so I can’t get the scans today. Curses!

where did you stop for lunch?

The kid demanded McNugz, so I got a Big Mac.

what is her go to dipping sauce?

Bbq, but I don’t bring it up in the name of less mess.

Here's to strong and very clear pee today, fellas.

Mine was fully green yesterday. It was disturbing. I blame the B-complex vitamin drops I use. The bottle was empty so I filled it with water and swished it around to get the last bits of vitamin. But maybe I got too much. But also, that stuff is red, not green or blue, so I'm still confused. Maybe it wasn't green, but slightly red? I googled "reddish green" but that is not an option on the color wheel, as they are opposites.
I'm back to normal today, but boy was that odd

Need to figure out why my pee smells like burned popcorn

Pee is a little too yellow. Could be slightly dehydrated from being sick last week.

Doing this new thing now where I stick out my belly and really try to bloat it out while peeing.

Seems to help get a lot more out, especially at the end.

Very satisfying.

Very emptying.

I kinda just hold that pose for awhile when I'm done. It's nice.
