    Oh dear Tim,

    I had a Holep almost three months ago and everything is fine - what has gone wrong for you?

      Rog, 

      Not sure what a "Holep" is? I expect that this will be fine. It's been a week and I'm already better symptom-wise. Thx for checking in.

    Oh heck no. Grew weary of multiple trips to the bathroom at night, on airplanes,

    always had an eye out for a bathroom wherever I went. It was time for me.

    Expect a longer recovery period than you may have expected with blood loss, inconvenience and discomfort, but don't get discouraged and think of the future. Good luck.

    Hi Tim;  Since you just had it last week I would love to hear from you over the next few weeks as you recover.  Would be very interested in hearing how many trips to the bathroom before the surgery and how many trips now after the surgery.   I would imagine that you know now you will probably have retrograde ejaculation.  But I guess there are worse things in life.  Good Luck to You.
