Ok, this may be off candor, but hey, it's after-hours.. I'm assuming other people have went through this same damn thing. I guess I just didn't expect it at 30 :frowning:
Felt awfully uncomfortable a few weeks ago and went to the ER and they immediately diagnosed a Urinary infection, and sent me home.. but before I left, made me go through all the STD testing (my wife & I have been married five years, so fairly doubtful)
They called me back the within the week and all the tests were negative. My initial test for bacteria (UTI) also negative. So I basically took Cipro for nothing :frowning:
Sent me to a Urologist and damnit, prostate problems. So, now I have to switch up my diet, etc. Now, I always knew my diet was on the negative side (I tend to drink about a 12 pack of cola a day) but I don't smoke, don't drink alcohol, etc.
I guess I'm glad we caught things early, but I always thought (and apparently wrongly) that these kind of problems were.. well, things that could hit me in my 40s/50s, not quite yet ;(
I'm sure others have gone through this, any thoughts? Diets you've tried? I was told to totally give up pop.. damn, that's going to be the hard one..
