I know it’s been a couple years since you all last posted here. I just joined and came across your comment. I am 43 years old, male and also have a bladder neck obstruction and was advised by the urologist to get a BNI, but I have held off.
My sleep has been bad for about 3 years. I’ve tried a similar medication to flomax, called alfuzosin and also silodosin, but side effects of congested nose are what bothers me the most so I stopped taking it. I probably didn’t give it long enough.
Wondering if you got your surgery and if so did it help? Would you recommend sticking to the medication to see if it helps more?
Thanks,
Mauricio
Hi Joel,
I had BNI at 5 and 7. I did not have any incontinence problems. However, I had a lot of bleeding after a bowel movement a couple of days later. Maybe because the rectum is at 6 o'clock. I had to go to the ER to clear the obstruction due to the blood clots.
After this issue I was urinating great. I am at 5 weeks and I starter to see the flow slow. I am getting worried and thinking what I should do next.
Thanks,
