Let us know what's next, as this is serious business.
PS: There's a urology center in New London, maybe that's not to far from you.
PSS: Congrats on taking the smoking cessation step! That's huge! Keep going!

Thank you for the reply, Harrison. My PC doc didn't seem overly alarmed at my situation, other than to order the ultrasound. I had it yesterday, and apparently everything that it can check (prostate, bladder, kidneys) looked fine. The dr who performed the test mentioned a CT scan, but said that would be up to my PC doc when he got the results of the test. So far I have not heard anything from him.
I currently have an appointment with my neurosurgeon scheduled for April 1st. Please don't congratulate me on the smoking. I was supposed to stop yesterday, but am still smoking today. I've cut down some, but otherwise failed. I can't do it while fighting the medical issues, work issues, and new personal family issues.....
