Man 2129 yo USA Cystoscopy as part of general physical

I had cystoscopy - I am male. The exam took place in North America. UNC Chapel Hill, NC USA 21 and 29 years old, 21 years old at Year 2011. Had cystoscopy in a health centre. Cystoscopy took place in another special place - please comment. Took place at a outpatient surgery facility


PREPARATIONS

Got an accurate explanation of what should be done and the reason. Was part of my 21st exam. It was a big exam because I am now an adultm I drove myself

Had to stop eating several hours before the cystoscopy. Given laxatives at home before the exam. Got to a special preparation room. Had to undress completely and go to bed. While in bed given medicine to get very sleepy but was awake. The whole bed was rolled with me upon when the time for the exam had come.

Taken vitals like temperature, heart rate and blood pressure. A doctor came, asked questions and explained. A consent formula was presented and signed.

God lubricating and pain-killing fluid inserted in through the pee-hole. Got a shot to calm down and make sleepy. Was totally naked during exam.

Lay on back with legs in stirrups. Had an iv tube and saline drip


DETAILS I KNOW ABOUT THE EXAM

They put a rigid stick-like cystoscope in through the urethra. They pumped up and irrigated bladder with water when looking inside. They took out the scope and inserted a new scope to take further specimens. The scope or a new intrument was inserted even further up towards the kindeys.

They also used an ultrasond probe on the stomach to inspect the bladder area. They inserted an ultrasond probe in through the anus to inspect the bladder and genital area. They made an ultrasound exam of the scrotum and testicles.


ARRANGEMENTS AFTER THE EXAM

Had catheter in the bladder some time after the exam. Had to stay in bed some hours after the exam. Was allowed to leave a couple hours later by myself. Went back to my apartment and fell asleep. Other follow-ups please comment.


REASONS FOE THE EXAM

Certain age groups of adults are given a offer for cystoscopy as a standard screening.


WHAT I THINK ABOUT THE EXAM

It was unneccessary. I might have it again but it wasn’t something I enjoyed.


COMMENTS

The geografical area mentioned seems to be one where systoscopy and even an inspection all the way up into the kidneys is offered as a part of the general physical for certain age groups. Based on other accounts I have It is probable that this area also offer the exam for boys and girls in early teens or preteens, but this man did not get the exam at that age for some reason.
