what you can and can't do after a turp

Posted , 7 users are following.

I had my Turp 3 weeks ago, I've looked on NHS hospital web pages and nearly all give different rules to follow, IE: driving: some say " no driving for 4 weeks" others say "2 weeks" others " when you feel able to do an emergency stop". other guide lines also differ. as these are all NHS guide lines should they not all be the same. ? the notes they gave me leaving hospital were just a download from another Hospital site.

Has any one else been perplexed by what information should be followed.

kind regards

Howard.
