Is it just because I am getting old?!


Question: Over the last few months I have found that I need to pee more than usual and its always urgent, I live 24 miles from work and often have to stop on the way home and dash behind a tree. What could this be and is it worth seeing my GP about it, I am a young 49!

You should go see a doctor right away. It could be an enlarged prostate. I had the same problem when I was in my 60's and they found out that I had cancer of the prostate. I had to have it removed. I have been cancer free for about ten years now, because they found it before it spread to far. The sooner you see a doctor the better chance they can find out your problem and help you. Don't put it off, do it as soon as you can

No it's not normal - go to your doctors TOMORROW. Sounds like it needs urgent attention.

Tie a knot!

yes it is worth seeing your g.p.about these symptoms

Keep a bottle in the car with you and pee into that while you drive.

it could be a urine infection. start drinking cranberry juice and make an appointment with Dr.

There could be various reasons. Drinking more, sweating less due to change in work or the weather getting colder. Or perhaps you're drinking stronger coffee or eating spicy food.

More seriously it could be prostate trouble, which affects older men, or diabetes. So it is worth seeing your GP.

Go to the doctor. Could be the beginning of a bladder infection or a sign of diabetes.

You should go and see your PG

It could be a sign of Diabetes or maybe a Urinary Tract Infection, best to go to doctors for a diagnosis. You'll probably have to provide a sample for him.

Be safe - see you doctor ! ! !

check your prostate
sound like an infection

Need a check up. you might be diabetic, or have an infection!

I am 43 and getting to that age where I should go for a prostate check up and maybe dibeties as well and sounds like you need to as well.

Ha ha ha , I'm the same age and have the same symptoms....

nothing to worry about, ive had tests done over the last few weeks and nothing worrying came of them. age is the key factor.

its a combination of age and a bad taste in shirts nev! go see the gp, its not normal to be peeing that much and a change in toilet habits both number 1 and number 2 should be checked out just to be safe!

see you GP or you will kill all the tree off think of the rain Forest i got fined
