Hi, thanks for reading this, this is actually rather hard to discuss and I don't know why I feel so.... ashamed about it I guess.
I've looked at the information on the site, comparing symptoms and such to give an idea of what it may be that is causing me issues, and I feel it's a UTI.
I'm more concerned by the fact that yesterday I was completely fine, with no issues at all, but then I woke up during the night, about 3am, and went to urinate. At first, it was fine, steady stream, slight color, but then I felt a sudden pain, and I couldn't finish, but at the end, I didn't notice straight away, I was producing bloody urine. Since 3am, I have been nearly a dozen times, each time the same issue, same problems, intense pain, added pressure as I want to finish but the pain stops me, then the blood droplets. I have contacted my GP concerning this, and they would like a urine sample, which I'll be getting to them tomorrow unless I decide to just cut my penis off and be done with the pain.
But since that call, and my latest trip to the bathroom, I am more worried by the fact I had to basically pull a blood clot from myself after I stopped urinating. Adding this to the symptoms wasn't exactly easy, but it appears Bladder Cancer is higher on the list than before.
I am severely worried, but I am hoping it's just a UTI, and was wondering if anyone else has had this happen with a UTI, seeing as this is a sudden occurance and exceedinly painful. Any advice, help, or information will be greatly appreciated.
