Raj - Did you mean to say "don't rule out prostitutes", or did you mean to say "prostatitis" ? I'm sure I know what you meant to say, after 22 years working in Hospitals and doctor's offices. I don't how old Rick said he was, but in older people, this happens a lot, especially with certain meds and of course, certain diseases. Hope you are doing well. Best to you.
