Unable to urinate? Is it BPH or Bladder Disease caused by DMT2?

Did they do a PSA level in his blood work? That is the only test currently done to determine prostate issues. If they did a bladder scan they may have looked at his prostate too. I’m 72 and I hope you’ve asked your dad what he wants at 79? Putting him on an injectable to lose weight I question. Is the doc speaking about one of these new weight loss drugs that treats both DM and weight? Also, make certain your docs records show that you have authorization to be involved in your dad’s care. BTW docs are just too damn busy to take time to talk with each other because they have too many patients to see and not enough time. I’m a retired nurse and being on the receiving end now is eye opening.

Here we are 2024, he feels great but unable urinate on his own. He has me down as his advocate for his medical care.

For his doctor help him find an answer. i'm doing all of research making more information available.
