Aquablation: Post-surgery expectations

For anyone considering aquablation sometime in the future, I would suggest you also consider a PAE (prostate artery embolization). I had it done a little over a year ago and the results are amazing. They go into an artery in your thigh and up into you aorta and then down to the two arteries going to your prostate and place very small beads in them to block most of the blood going to the prostate. This is similar to placing stents going to the heart. I was in and out in half a day and had no after effects except that I no longer need to take two FloMax every day.

Hi, I´m 74y.o.. Probably my Prostate size now is 80/90. In 2017 I had a PAE in 2017 and are looking for a new one in months to come. My first pos operatory PAE was very painful (painful urination, blood in urine and semen, frequent urination). Would you please tell me if today it´s possible to radiologists intervencionsists, to protect penile arteries, perineal and rectum arteries from embolization? Are there today any new medicines that help us to overcome extreme painful outcomes when doing PAE? Thank you for heping me
