It has been a month since I had my turp procedure. The anticipation of the operation was worse than the actual operation. Before the op I had an epidural (spinal tap) to numb the lower part of the body plus they give me an anaesthetic to make me drowsy(doc said it was equal to 4 glasses of wine). The reason for the op was that I could not pee. Had a catheter in place for 5 weeks before the op which was no fun.

After removal of the catheter after the op the first time peeing is painful but gets better each day. Every day I tell myself this op is a miracle. Now I have better flow.

Many men will have enlarged prostate as they get older. To live with that too long is unnecessary and uncomfortable. Get your prostate checked out regularly with your doc.
