Had the surgery 12/24. The surgery was a non-event and went home with a catheter for 5 days. The catheter was difficult and happy when it was removed. Had bleeding issues for multiple months when exercising; even though I waited the prescribed 4-6 weeks of minimal exercise. The results of the surgery were noticeable and positive; less urgency, less bathroom trips, and strong stream, normal sexual activity. Had a setback after four months as painful urination, blood, and slowed stream came back which was the result of either calcified prostate tissue or perhaps bladder stones. Once removed all systems go.
