An update on this:
I did the UT test and there was no infection.
I started to go to the bathroom every 3 hours or so. Even at nights, I set up alarms to wake me up every 3 hrs and after a week the bleeding stopped. I had another course of bleeding which following the same routine helped stopping it in a few days. So things were very well over the past 2 months until yesterday.
Yesterday I had the 6-month follow-up visit. I had a lot of bleeding in my urine test. Based on my previous experience I knew that the direction of my penis during urination/ejaculation is very important. Also, when something is coming out I shouldn’t hold it ever. To fill out the cup I held the penis in a slightly abnormal position and also hold myself to put aside the cup and finish going to the bowl. I thought this was the reason for the bleeding. My dr insisted on doing a cystoscopy and I strongly opposed him because I was sure that this was the reason. He was concern about bladder cancer (prevalent secondary cancer), kidney stone, and surgery site problem.
One day after, thank god, I’m doing fine and there is no bleeding, pain, or weak stream. Who knows what would have happened if he was doing the cystoscopy? I’ve learned that you shouldn’t let any dr peeking around there unless it is absolutely necessary.
The lesson is to know your body! Drs nowadays are like robots following protocols and for them (this was one of the best dr at the best urology clinic), you are just a point in a diagram in a paper and you should be similar to other patients otherwise they are stuck. It’s their job to tell you the protocol and your job to adjust it based on your info about your body.
