Not to ask a gross medical question, but ...
Edited on Sat Feb-09-08 05:06 PM by Akoto
Does having a DRE hurt? I have to go and have one this coming week, and I have a serious medical phobia. x(

I've been in some pain, and my doctor thinks I have a chronic condition, so he's sending me to a specialist. I guess the DRE is the first line in checking for/confirming the problem.

1. No.
It doesn't hurt at all. Hope all goes well for you with tracking down the source of your problems.

2. Me too.
Even if they can't fix it, I would take some peace of mind from knowing exactly what the problem is. I've had exams, ultrasounds, etc and nothing.
