Hello,
thanks for using health care magic
Seeing a urologist is important and you should
do all to meet him.
It could be possible that he has abnormally growing
cells in the prostate which have more or less spread to
adjacent organs. Exhaustion, weight loss, blood in urine
all could be explained by the above.
The urologist would run some tests including
-prostate ultrasound,
-prostate specific antigen
-cystoscopy and if necessary a
prostate biopsy.
Best regards
Dr Achuo
