I have a doctor who has provided a dx of pelvic fullness. The patient is male and the doctor has ordered a PSA, complete CBC, and lipid panel. Does anyone have a suggestion for an ICD-9 code for pelvic fullness of a male patient?
 
789.9

As it is not a definitive dx as well it's the pt's "subjective" sensation , I'd assign 789.9. (symptom /pelvis)
