Default update on appt!

Thanks to all that read and replied! Well, I went to the urologist. I just saw the PA, not the doctor yet. She was super nice and I am so glad I chose that office. Basically, they did an ultra sound of my bladder to measure the amount of urine left after I went. I ended up still having 162mL remaining after I went to the bathroom. I knew I had a retention problem. She ended up giving me Flomax for my issue with getting started with urination. This stuff is pretty weird. It severly effects my cognitive functions, makes me dizzy, and makes me slur my words pretty bad. Which really sux because I work in a customer service call center and half to talk all night long. It feels like my tongue is about 5 inches thick. So, I think I may have to contact the doc and see if she wants to prescribe something else. Has anyone else experienced this?

She has ordered a "special" CT scan... no idea why it is special or why it has to be special... and also a "special" urine analysis... I am going to give my urine sample tomorrow and my ct scan is scheduled for friday!! I guess we will find out! Anyone else been through this?? Would love to hear from you all!
