RE: : Test Participant & Stock HolderThe injection was done in Apr/09 after a complete physical including measurement of the prostate gland to determine whether or not I was a suitable test subject.
Each IPSS questionaire has been the same re: Incomplete Emptying of Bladder; Frequency; Intermittency; Urgency; Weak Stream; Straining; Nocturia; Quality of life.
Last follow up in Oct/09 included measure of prostate, blood work primarily to measure PSA I am assuming, measurement to determine flow rate and ability to empty bladder, blood pressure, pulse and respritory rate, etc.
The IPSS rating is; 0-7 - Mildly symptomatic; 8-19 Moderately symptomatic; 20-35 Severely symptomatic.
Judging from the questions in front of me I think that my initial responses most likely totalled over 20. My next submission is by phone next month and right now I would estimate that my responses will total approximately a 2 or 3.
On the sexual dysfunction side it has gone from unsatisfactory and loss of interest to adequately functional in that I had my 65th birthday some years ago.
