@joseflesh I think recovery varies for less of people. I was doing great at 2 months, but frequency and discomfort increased in month 3. Now almost 4 months the frequency has settled down mostly but irritation in urethra and burning in perineum still an issue so you're not alone. My next Uro appointment wasn't until 6 months, but I scheduled something for next week to discuss any options. I still find a lot of heavy activity increases symptoms. Still all in all in much better of than I was so i still feel confident. My flow is generally very good, up less at night and frequency isn't bad

I think the intensity of activities has a direct correlation with symptoms. Taking care of regular home chores( vacuum, etc.) do increases discomfort. I can tell my bladder, pelvic or prostate is (are) inflamated. Again! I just want reassurance from my Urologist that these symptoms are part of what's considered normal.

I do live alone and have to take care of my 2 cats and home maintenance. My girlfriend is out of State and unable to assist due to work. Nobody wants to be sick, nor in pain. That's my only complain, the pain urination, burning and irritation overall.

It is comforting to know there are others with similar symptoms. It gives me hope that my struggle is within what's considered normal recuperation.

I am positive we will reap the full benefits of Aquablation in not too distant future.
