For me, very frequent and painful urination. Probably 40-50 times voiding only an ounce or two.

Doc said all the post procedure inflammation causes that. They don’t tell you this beforehand.

Motrin helped a little, but not much.

@bill5letsfixthis it would great to get a periodic update on how you are doing. Thx.

@bill5letsfixthis no they don't tell you that. My first sign was in recovery when the nurse who was dismissing me kept staying it gets worse before it gets better. My symptoms were already bad but they got much worse that first couple of days, one day thought i was going to get catheterization. My uro does a PAE/ Aquablation combination procedure with the Aqua a few days after. The aquablation was actually a relief and less painful than the PAE when though neither were what I would call painful, more uncomfortable.
