Like most guy's I never went to the doctor for anything nor did I have routine physicals. Last year at the age of 56 I had a scare (blood in urine) immediately went to a Urologist. Luckily it turned out to be an infection that was treated with medication. I had a Cat-scan/MRI, Cystoscopy and Colonoscopy. All results came back okay. Because of this scare I am now on a yearly checkup plan. I think what scared me the most was the thought of not seeing my 4 Grandchildren grow up. I want to be around to enjoy them! I just want to stress the importance of what these guy's are saying
and,

IF YOU EVER SEE BLOOD IN YOUR URINE SEE A DOCTOR ASAP! DO NOT IGNORE IT EVEN IF THE BLOOD EVENTUALLY GOES AWAY!
