Would you mind saying more about what happened to you?

- ScottBurson 10y agoI don't remember exactly how long I had been using this skillet for my eggs -- a couple of months, perhaps, no more. I started having urinary difficulties, went to my doctor, and was diagnosed with Benign Prostate Hyperplasia. He didn't identify any specific cause nor prescribe any treatment, but somehow I got the idea that it might be the Teflon and stopped using it. The problem, which I had never had before, went away and has not recurred. It's possible this particular skillet had been overheated at some point, though I certainly wasn't using high heat to scramble eggs. But still, why take the chance? The ceramic non-stick surfaces you can get these days work well enough and are much safer (AFAIK, anyway).
- nate_meurer 10y agoInteresting, thanks.
