@fig1971 What type of radiation treatment did you have that caused nausea and throwing up? Was it only your prostate gland that was treated?

@daveys Good question - have not heard of this in any forum discussions, have you? Usually the lower GI is affected - not the upper.

@fig1971 If you check the contraindications of Tamsulosin, you’ll find that retrograde ejaculation is common.

@brianjarvis Retrograde ejaculation is also common following a HoLEP procedure, though I do not understand why.

@daveys It’s said to be a common and permanent result of most prostate surgeries - including HoLEP.

Did you discuss likely side-/after-effects with your doctor prior to the surgery?
