Regarding Tamsulosin, that is what I was taking in the end, and it did help, but I still retained urine causing my issues. So again, make sure they are doing bladder scans if there is any issue about whether your are fully emptying your bladder.

Yes. I believe Tamsulosin is not intended to fix all of the bladder retention. It does soften the prostate so that urine passes easier. I do not believe you can get 100% once a certain point is reached in terms of size of prostate.
