[QUOTE="OMI100, post: 190015, member: 71"] 1. Everyone is different and have different symptoms and most likely a bit different procedure. 2. Dr. did not go into great detail on 1st night being worst but covered a number of situations that could happen. My guess is each persons body will react to a significant part of blood flow to your prostate being cut off differently. He did mention that the bladder might kick in more often due to the actions going on in the prostate. Also there was the possibility of some prostate swelling as I recall. All minor sides. In my case the ONLY pain was removing the stuff that was taped to my wrist and the cath site is still a bit sensitive. Nothing to write home about, just need to keep an eye on it and let it heal. There was a mention of a need to cath in vary rare cases where the prostate swelled up and closed off the urethra. I had no issues like that. 3. I had tried all the meds for BPH and it was the same if I took them or not with the exception of 5mg Cialis. I stayed on that and am still taking it now. 4. I was walking in to the hospital at 0700 and was walking out to go to lunch at noon :) I would say the actual procedure in my case (time on the table) was less than 2 hrs. Again dependent on each persons situation. 5. Impact to date is increased need to pee :) I think the prostate and body is adjusting to the loss of blood to portions of the prostate. Once that settles down I think improvements will start. Dr. did say about 2 weeks to start seeing improvements. 6. Biggest issue 5 days post procedure is to make sure I am near a latrine to pee at all times :) [/QUOTE]
