really I had A dynamic urinary study done yesterday boy was that fun. At least my bladder is good but I have a restriction in my urethra inside the prostrate  . Exactly what I feared exactly what the jerk off radiologist said would not happen I asked him how the hell can you radiate prostrate so much in the Aretha not get affected and he just said it doesn’t and I fell for it  . I should’ve known better I must move forward but I guess I should be very careful I can either stay on Flomax the rest of my life and probably end up having bladder problems with my bladder will get weak from pushing so hard I’m leaving it up to the surgical oncologist I’m gonna see what he says
