Things
in life are not always rosy especially when age starts to advance and health
issues start to surface one after the other. On 2008, I began to notice and
first experience weak stream urination which would finally result in urinary
retention. At least I made three unscheduled visit to the Overlake Hospital
emergency service to undergo a procedure to relieve the bladder of its content.
This blockage in the urethra was caused by damage in the prostate and urethra
tissue due to radiation side effects when I was treated for prostate cancer.
The other health issue I had is atrial fibrillation of the upper part of the
heart which seemed to be under controlled by medication.
