At this point, the main thing you need to look out for is your PSA test at eight weeks or so.

On my fourth day after surgery, I was out at three clients offices, working on their computer problems. I might have felt a little discomfort, But not much. Yeah, I had a catheter in for 14 days, but it was not a big deal. Nobody noticed it. On the seventh day, I went back to work full-time. At that point there was no discomfort at all though I was taking two acetaminophen every six hours.

Taking out the catheter is pretty pain-free. The question is how much you were going to leak after they remove it. Bring pads with you, You probably will need them, but it’s not guaranteed. One thing you’ll learn is that off brand pads don’t work too well. I have heard the Amazon ones work well but the Tena ones work real well and so do the depends.

Getting dizzy from acetaminophen would be quite unusual. Not a very common side effect. Are you sure that’s what’s doing it? Maybe it’s another drug?
