I had devinchi robatic prostate surgery on October 29th, and on Nov 12th this Doctor's Nurse pulled the catheter out like it felt she pulled my guts out.

-When ever I use the bathroom for #1 or 2 there is discomfort.

-When I wash my self thereis pain inside the uritra area.

Is this Normal?

Thanks,

VE

 My history,

54 YO, had no problem what so ever, great Sex-life, father had prostate removed at age 75.

Had my yearly Phisycal and blood test ended with PSA at 5.

Took Antibaitic for 10 days the PSA whent down to 4.1, whatied another 20 days and PSA was 3.9.

Dr. Recommended biopsy and out of 10samples 1was abnormal, and 3mm of one lower left lobe was diagnised as cancer. GS-6

Generally I am OK except that any time I stand up and any pressure to my bladder, it causes a bit of dischard. I hope it get better. Are these normal at this stateg of my recovery?

    Welcome Sam,  your only a few weeks post op so some soreness should be somewhat normal.  If it is sharp pains I would call your Dr.  Just remember you had major surgery.  Let your body take time to heal.

    Good Luck,

Hello VE,

Anything that you feel is abnormal is something your doctor needs to know about. Like the others have said is true however; your body has just been through great trauma, and needs more than a few weeks to heal. My doctor's advice was to ask: "Is today maybe just a little bit better than the day before, and is this week better than the last?" If you can say: "I think so." You'll be just fine.

Good luck, and I wish you a seedy recovery.

Glen
