@casd57 are they in the same hospital, practice? I’d get independent second opinion from another hospital. Preferably a Center of Excellence.
@casd57 You need more information regardless. I agree with others that I would want an outside of your facility second opinion at center of excellence or CCC facility. I would be interested in how they remove a prostate through your penis. Usually they cut the urethra near the bladder neck then sew it back up after removal with a cath in place. I don't see where in your post that you mention cancer. BPH can be ablated without removing the prostate and without the side effects of removal. I hope you get it sorted out and don't have cancer.

@casd57
I think I would still want a second opinion from a urologist at a center of excellence.
Surgery may be right, or it may be too much. I wish you the best in your search for the answer to your problem.
