Do you pee to much at night

Hi all Guys
If your pee more at night and it’s slow going ,get yourself check out ,About 6 week ago I finely went to the doctors.
Yes had the blood test Psa and it was lower than it should be ,so was ask to go in and see doctor who gave me the examination we all dread.Dr said he was 50/50 so referred me to Hospital .
By this time I was not sleeping dew to worrying about it all ,end up having another examination and A MRI scan .which is scary in itself they don’t tell you what to expect.
As you go in.
They you wait another few weeks for what you think will tell you one way or the other if the big c .
Not that lucky . then get another appointment to see specialist ,and he does another examination,he’s not sure
So makes appointment for a biopsy,Then when the fun really start.You go in to hospital
And but your legs in a chair that tip up exposing everting you got.They put a camera where the sunny does shine and a long needle that take the biopsy.The most painful thing I have every had in my life time.Then when you get home and go for a pee wow shock ,blood [Scared.png] scaryI am into about 4 week after biopsy and still passing little bit of blood

week late you get the result,
Got the all clear happy days ,No big c ,just a enlarged prostate.Take pills and finger cross I will never have to have a biopsy again .
If anyone needs to know pm me and we can talk.I wish I would of found someone to talk to before hand. [Hug.png]

Re: Do you pee to much at night

I'm currently waking evert hour and a half to pee at night. Daytime, every time I stand up after sitting in a chair, run a tap to make a drink... I need to pee. And I pee a lot too.

I had my NHS bowel cancer screening last weeks and the result was clear. I get the pack every 2 years and send off my poo sample through the post (poor postman) [Happy.png]

Re: Do you pee to much at night

I feel for you [Hug.png]
I had a history of an enlarged prostate from 2013 to 2017 (so 57 years old in 2017), nothing serious, just that prostate was the size of a tomato and not "walnet" size. Medication prescribed but no way of knowing if this was working without annual CT scans which would have cost the NHS £sss. Had problems with wanting to pee but only a tea spponful coming out. Usually overnight but used to resolve itself during the day.
Fast forward to 2017 and after 4 pints of lager over 6 hours, I went into retention and ended up in A&E with a catheter being inserted to releive the pressure.
Basically, protate was now clamping the urethra 24/7, so catheter and bag for 12 months. Then had laser treatment in 2018 and most of prostate removed and life's never been better.
Moral is, if you're either peeing a lot or wanting to and little comes out, GET YOURSELF CHECKED OUT!!!!
Yes, cameras up your John Thomas hurt, as does having a catheter inserted every 2-3 months but at the end of the day, you're still here to tell your story [Success.png]

Re: Do you pee to much at night

I know ow y'all feel.
In 1984 I had a motorcycle accident that broke my back. One thing the damage did was left me with a neurogenic bladder which in my later years (as the doctors said it would) left me with a dribbling wee wee to put it nicely. I have had to wear incontenance pants for a long while now and am keeping it semi under control.
As far as night goes, I have no problem yet but pee like a russian race horse when I get up.

Re: Do you pee to much at night

I can normally go most of the day without peeing much but go regulary twice a night, however i usually have a drink a lot of water and coffee until just before going to bed. At the minute i am trying ro lose weight via slimming world, into second week and that makes you go more often as you tend to lose the water out of your body first. Lost 11.5lbs in the first week and most of that was via the peeing route 😀
