I don’t know how long it takes to recover from this procedure or if you’re having complications or not.
However, doctors aren't Gods. They are capable of mistakes even Harvard-educated ones.
Sounds like you'll stick with him even though you're having doubts.
Second opinions are welcomed are encouraged by good doctors. Why don't you ask him if you should get one? Don't use his recommendation though.
Good luck,
Jake

Thanks for all the replies. It's been 9 weeks since I had the Rezum procedure. The bleeding and pain stopped after 6 weeks. I've had 3 urinary tract infections that have been resolved with antibiotics. I now have a good flow when I urinate with no problem during the day or night. BUT, I am now incontinent and have lost all my libido and ability to get an erection at all. I was never incontinent in my life. So, the trade-off is I couldn't pee at night (even with large doses of Flowmax or Alfuzosin) while now I pee on myself all the time (day and night) and have 100% ED. I wouldn't do this procedure in hindsight or recommend it to ANYONE.
