RA - Sorry I didn't respond to your post sooner. I am not a physician but I work with a variety of people who describe very dramatic changes in how they think, feel, and behave. They can often pinpoint the moment, day, or week in their lives that something changed. From those experiences and what you have described, I would like you to consider three possible culprits - a traumatic event of some kind, a psychological conflict, or a neurological problem. If you haven't gotten your primary physician involved in this please do and ask him/her what their thoughts are about possible physical causes. See another urologist if you are not satisfied with the treatment you have received and finally go see a mental health practitioner just to rule out the possibility of an emotional cause. I know that you are fairly sure that this is not emotionally based but you owe it to yourself to be persistent and thorough in your search for a solution.
