Started pissing blood.

Went to the ER, where they had me piss into a jar which they sent to the lab just so they could tell me I was pissing blood.

At any time did the good doctor ask about my sexual history? Nope.
Did he do a physical exam and look for discharge? Nope.
Did he do a swab to check for a nasty STI? Nope.

He put me on an antibiotic so that an infection would not start, and put me on a drug to shrink my prostate, then suggested I see an urologist ASAP.

Two ultra sounds booked for tomorrow. Urologist booked for Friday.

I can't believe that I have gotten to the age when the medical staff don't even look at my problem as being sex related. I guess they think that as a single guy, I'm too old to be getting any.

high blood pressure?
 
How old are you, my dad isn't crazy about getting old either, he healthy but he's just not happy about it. This is what worries me about not having any kids, what the fuck am I gonna do when I get old.
 
It's better than not getting old.

I'm no doctor, are you one? So how can you tell if what they were doing was right or wrong?
 
just lie about your age ,take two cute blondes and a bottle of wine

As L4L pointed out there are a number of things that could cause blood in the urine. I was disappointed that they did not bother to investigate the stuff that they would have focused on if I was 25, and instead immediately went after the problem that most of us are going to face as we age, an enlarged prostate.

As for the high blood pressure guess, I'm at 122/79, well with in normal.

And talking about a cute blonde, there was this young woman in the ER that was replacing supplies. Looking so hot in scrubs, listening to her walkman, not noticing I was watching every time she bent over.

The working theory is that my prostate has enlarged, and that the force of the urine has caused little tears which bleed.

I don't want to alarm you, but STD's are probably the last thing a doctor thinks of when a patient is pissing blood, there are way more serious issues to think about. Your doctor did the right thing by getting you tested immediately and ultra sounds. I have experience in this area.
 
I've pissed blood before when i was younger and it was very freaky. It turned out to be some mild kidney disorder which i forgot what the name is. It could also be a bladder infection. That's what the urologist is for. Does it burn when you pee?

Good luck buddy.

Just wanted to say had same thing when was in my early fiftys and the results where good after taking some meds, The Urologist will most likely have you go in for a scope( up the penis) and see what might be infected hopefully nothing will be there good luck

Absolutely. An STI would be the least of your concerns, but hope it's nothing serious and good luck.

You aren't the only one. :(
 
Did your Dr finger fuck you yet?

She is cute as a button. But she declined to feel the prostate and I'm off to see the urologist on Friday. Did the ultrasound today and at one point had to concentrate very hard on Short-bald, as the blonde tech was beginning to give me wood. That would have been a very embarassing moment.

Maybe you guys can give me some advice. I'm in a similar situation. I had no idea that I was pissing blood, but when doing a regular checkup including for STDs (which thankfully came back clean) my doc noticed that there is a bt of blood in my urine. He said that for some people it's normal, but he'd like me to get checked out at a urologist.

This would involve sticking a scope or camera up the urethra, which sounds incredibly painful!! Has anybody had this done before? Is it as bad as it sounds? How long does it take to recover?
