Urologist Verifying Symptoms?

James249620002000: I was so glad this post was here. I am having similar problems and seeing urologist now.

Last Thursday, I developed a high fever, couldn't eat, vomited. I went to my MD, and he diagnosed me with flu even though I told him I had a burning senstion when I urinated. He stated that the burning sensation was proably due to dehydration and extremely concentrated urine.

The next morning, I awoke unable to piss. I went to the urologist and discovered the enlarged prostate problem. Also, after finally getting a trickle out, I discovered that I had the urinary tract infection.

I would recommend going to the urologist first. If I had started medication the day my MD mis-diagnosed me, I could have saved myself a lot of pain and grief.

Thanks guys for all of these posts. I am still on medication (Cypro), and I was looking for information from others. Thanks again.

We often think doctors are infallible and regretfully learn the hard way, like you did, James, but thankfully mistakes are few and most of us don't have to suffer unnecessarily. I hope the Cypro does the trick, buddy, and thanks for letting us know.
