@1608hope, waiting is hard. I'm glad that you have an appointment with a specialist to rule out cancer or something else serious going on. The symptoms your describe do not necessarily indicate cancer, but they do require further investigation. Have you had blood in your urine? Is it discolored?

My primary care physician prescribed a lower abdominal spiral CT that clearly showed a tumor. You might ask your physician to do the same. In addition, start calling the urology group every day and ask if there has been any cancellations. I was able to save a six week wait by doing that. Good luck to you.
