Thanks, I didn't know this. I haven't officially been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate, but as I get older I sure pee a lot more often.
The doc I mentioned above wants me to start a 10 day program of 500mg of Naproxen twice a day, along with up to 1000mg of acetaminophen 3 times a day. I was supposed to have a colonoscopy about 2 weeks after this visit, and when I asked the GI nurse she recommended holding off on that until after the colonoscopy. Then the wife gave me covid, the colonoscopy got rescheduled, and I still haven't opened the naproxen bottle. Now I might not take it at all, or hold off until my back acts up again.
