Now that's just weird...

Ok, I got my results back from my GP about my Pelvic Ultrasound (I won't bother you with a scanned image of my prostate!).

My prostate is completely normal. That's good news but the question still remains as to why it takes so long to take a tinkle :-) Anyway, nothing appears to be wrong so I'm not going to worry about it.

Ow! My Prostate!

Had a pelvic ultrasound today so my GP can get a better look at my enlarged prostate. Interesting stuff! :-) I also had a scan back in March 2003 about a week before I originally went to hospital for WG. May be WG related - may be not. Will hopefully find out more on Friday when the GP gets the results.

If you're new to Wegener's Granulomatosis, I have some information that might help - click here Got some questions? I have a basic FAQ here. Wegener's Granulomatosis "is an uncommon disease, in which the blood vessels are inflamed (vasculitis). This inflammation damages important organs of the body by limiting blood flow to those organs and destroying normal tissue. It mainly affects the respiratory tract (sinuses, nose, trachea, and lungs) and kidneys. This disorder can affect people at any age and strikes men and women equally."
