How are you doing 5 days after Rezum? Is cath still in? I am 80 years old and started with BPH symptoms about 6 years ago. I am taking tamsulosin in am and pm before bed along with 400 MG Ibuprofen. Up once a night. I was set to do REZUM months back but urologist lost access to equipment because of change in ownership. I oscillate back and forth. I see a urologist in NYC which is about 100 miles away..

Pablo, the catheter was in for three days and then fell out the morning it was to be removed. Tamsulosin sounds like it's working for you. They put me on that and took me off Myrbetriq. I will try Oxybutynin before going back to Myrbetriq for co$t reasons. Getting up only once at night sounds pretty much good to me. The PA said "the two weeks after the REZUM procedure sucks." It might not be worth going through the Vicodin, REZUM, catheterization, two weeks of serious discomfort, self-catheterization (which I am now doing) to get rid of one nighttime biffy-visit. Think about it.
