I had the PAE procedure this morning June 30. Washington driven the three hours home with a stop at the pharmacy for antibiotics, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and something for bladder spasms.

Sitting in the car for that long made me feel some ache in my rectal/prostate area. The only other pain is a slight stinging near the far end of my urethra. I’ve had stinging upon urination off and on for a few years, so this is nothing new. This first seven hours is tolerable. I’m glad I took the initiative and traveled home.

I just now thought that I could have brought a donut pillow for the ride home. Hindsight. Also, could help someone in the future if they read this.
