Hi,
im 48 and three weeks ago started to urinate about 12 times a day after experiencing very mild frequency increase over the summer. Saw the doctor last Monday and had a blood test. Going back tomorrow (thurs 6) for results. since first appointment I have started to get other symptoms, such as lower back ache, a bit of thigh, knee and ankle ache. My anxiety levels have been through the roof. My gf and parents think I'm panicking unduly and when I got a letter from the doctor saying I was in a prediabetic condition (and no mention of PSA) they took that as confirmation it was all in my mind. but over the weekend I started to get tingling in feet and hands. This came and went. Today I got a feeling of slightly altered coordination and a slight weakness in the hands. Of course, now I think it's SCC and I'm going insane with worry because I've had no diagnosis or anything. Obviously i will tell the doctor but I am worried that there'll be more delay and if it is SCC then that is terrifying. What should I say/do if he tells me to go away and wait?
I am tempted to ring up one of the private places.
i have been off work and just getting through the days.
Nick
