Pain????

It sounds like most of you are doing well, were gald to hear that.  I have a question about pain, Rick woke up this morning with pain all through his pelvic area and in his lower hip down to where the leg meets the torso. We chalked it off to he probally over did it yesterday?? Tonight he started with a need to pee every 5 minutes and just a dribble each time. He said he has a continueous feeling of burning like in the uretha area??? Tonight the pain was so bad (Not even vicodin & oxctcodone helped) I finally called the doctor and he called in a prescription for antibotics. The doc thinks maybe he has a bladder infection going on. Has anyone had any experiances like this? His next PSA is on 9-21-07 should I see if the Doctor will do it any sooner?

Thanks in advance
