I see a urologist annually to monitor multiple uric acid kidney stones in both kidneys. I think she is sadistic based on the things she says that I should have done. She can see on my annual abdominal CT scan that my prostate is enlarged. Since my PSA is normal, I think my prostate should be left alone. She also said that microscopic blood in my urine isn't normal even though the microscopic blood has been detected for years when I was still on warfarin with kidney stones. There was no way I was ever going to do the work-up she said I should do to see why there is blood in my urine even though I can't see any blood in my urine visually.

My kidney stones aren't getting any bigger since the treatment of my uric acid level with allopurinol was initiated. Potassium citrate is shrinking the size of some kidney stones and others have disappeared. My prostate, on the other hand, gets bigger every year. I might not have the urine stream that I used to but hey ... that is the end of the world.
