I did a Urolift and after the operation, I could not get my bladder to respond. I was told because of lost elasticity since it was stretched out. It worked (semi) before the operation but has shut down since then. So I have been self cathing which I am used to but it is something you always have to worry about. I was told the next step (if I wanted it) was a TURP and possibly some mechanism to shock the bladder. I am hesitant in doing so as there are no guarantees for it to work and right now the sex part (even self cathing) is good. I don't want to take a step backward or have regrets. I have been self cathing for about a year....anyone experienced this? Hoping there will be something else coming out to relieve this.
