Oh you guyz and your macho shit, can I ask you why? The only person you're fooling is yourself. Its only when nature strikes, you realize it ain't worth it, don't act so macho, it doesn't do a body good.

I've had it. He is going to stick his finger in the bad place. They all do. Then he will prescribe meds which will clear it in a week. However, the meds taken already may need to be mentioned. I was even told I had a devient wang. Like I didn't know that.
I wish they weren't so worried with prostates.

Hey, glad to be here. Things are considerably better than they were last Saturday. In fact, I had my first almost completely symptom night last night. Besides the occasional twinge, I felt completely back to normal. And today was even better. I had one little incident involving a sudden sharp pain in my groin, due to, I dunno how to explain it...but it felt like something suddenly shifting and moving about down there. Yet more reason to believe this is a kidney stone.
Course why I feel about fine now, despite not having passed anything, I have no idea. In retrospect, I believe I was about to pass it while I was suffering through the worst Sunday morning. If it is actually a kidney stone. I dunno. That's what the doctors are there for.
I'm almost hoping it's an infection now. If it's a stone...well...I think this little rollercoaster of pain and suffering I've been on has a few more loops to throw my way before the end of the track.

I'm already bracing myself for the good old prostate exam. I've already gotten some good advice on how to prepare for it. I was basically told that at no point during the procedure will I be treated out to a nice, expensive dinner. Since I now know not to expect one, the inevitable rejection won't hurt quite as bad.
So I'm gonna be paying someone to do that to me, and I don't even get a tasty meal to help comfort me? Yeah. I'm gonna feel cheap and used. But hell. Whatever. I'm already used to that from Mr. Duck.

For some reason it was worse when its an attractive young female vietnamese doctor, and yet I cant explain why.

A prostate exam in no biggie compared to what you've been through or could go through if you don't get a check up.
Seriously, you people need to man up.
I'd empathise more if you were Joe Blogs I was dealing with face to face but I don't know him and I love you guys so you don't get no quarter. Get it seen to. Biatch.

You know, I'm one of those "sleep it off" people and the "be macho" is a part of it... but not more than half. That is, I dont avoid getting meds/seeing a doctor *only* because I want to appear strong or shit like that (especially when I'm living by myself, so it's not like anyone would even know).
Come to think about it, I'm not really sure why I avoid seeing a doctor or buying meds. Part of me, despite being a total agnostic pro-science dude, does not want to feed by body with chemicals and meds I dont reaaaally need; I prefer to let my body fight whatever is wrong and build its own immunity (and I tend not to get sick often, maybe because of that, maybe because of the moon, who knows). Secondly, I tend to get really mild illnesses, the typical flu gives me a bit of sniffles and maybe a sore throat in worst case scenario, so it's not really that huge of a nuisance most of the time. And lastly... there's a little bit of pleasure of lying in bed for a whole day drinking hot tea and chicken soup, you know? Getting a break from the usual daily work/school/socializing/etc. schedule to just be all warm and comfy and, despite weak body, somewhat relaxing, knowing you have a perfectly valid excuse for being a bum :p
EDIT: also, just to clarify, if I am completely dying and part of my body feels like it's going to explode, yes I'd probably seek medical help. The above is usually reserved to the typical flus/food posionings/colds type stuff.

Well Renz? Monday's almost over; did you do go to the doctor or are we going to have to continue to speculate?
BrokenArts on 6/12/2011 at 02:37
We can just speculate it fell off.

Speculate: From Latin speculatus, past participle of speculor, which means "look out".
Speculum: A medical instrument, so named because the doctor yells "Look out, here it comes!" whenever he uses it.

Judging from our conversations on my Minecraft server, that's no mere speculation.
