Thanks, also on statins.
Had the issue for two years plus. Blood tests for diabetes etc all ok and PSA negligible - as my dad has been treated for prostate cancer, the doctor has been particularly hot on that one.
Sounds like The Doctor has covered all the bases. Obviously, if anything changes, it's worth a re-visit.

I've prescribed amlodipine, simvastatin and atorvastain, widely for patients with hypertension, and urinary frequency isn't a common symptom. There could be some mileage in adjusting the dose (they have a long half life), but obviously back this up with your prescriber,

Maybe worth considering other causes as well, my first thing would be to rule out the obvious (chlamydia and the such like).
