18 days since turp surgery
Posted , 11 users are following.
it has been 18 days since surgery, light bleeding some days but not heavy. i am peeing every 45 minutes now and am hoping to start to process of getting better in that area. i see my doctor this Friday for my first follow up, it will give me a chance to discuss my progress or lack of it. i still have times of urgency and have to run to bathroom. so i do not know how i am doing i guess until i speak to doctor to discuss my symtoms. i was hoping by this time i would see a better change in my symtoms. Thanks for listening.

RELAX....all is good. The frequency will diminish. Don't do any heavy lifting or straining. Just relax, go to the bathroom when nature calls, and let your body heal. These are normal symptoms. Give it a few months and you will be pleased. Happy New Year.

HOLEP is supposed to be as durable as TURP but with quicker recovery.I'm surprised it wasn't covered. Aren't Uorlift, PAE, REZUM still considered experimental?

Prior to turp I was blocked trying to pee when getting up at night. I would have to walk around the house 10 to 15 minutes then I could pee but not really emptying my bladder. Same would happen if I would sit at the movies or at home for more than an hour or so. Bothered me most getting up 5 times or more at night and having to stay up each time. I would have a hard time going back to sleep, sometimes I couldn't sleep at all. Stream was so weak it seemd to take forever trying to dribble out what I could. Such a blessing to be able to pee again. I wake up ounce or twice a night to pee and get it done feeling like I emptied my bladder. A minute or two later I'm back in bed falling fast asleep. I finely feel rested when I get up in the morning.

I meant to say I assume during the day you had trouble peeing so it wasn't just a waking up from sleep problem?
