TURP Surgery
I don’t have cancer, I hope, so forgive me for intruding on your support group. I had TURP surgery (removal of some prostate tissue) six days ago, because of an enlarged prostate which was causing me weak urine stream and frequency (every 20 mins)
Now after the surgery, I still have frequency, even worse at times and weak stream though hard to tell, as I am holding back going full force due to the burning pain when I urinate. My Consultant seems rather dismissive of my concerns telling me that things will settle down within a few days to a few weeks and that sometimes the surgery just does not work.
I am seriously anxious and I suppose am just looking for a little reassurance that what I am going through after the surgery is fairly normal and usually does resolve itself in time. So if anyone who has gone through this procedure can give me advice, it would be great
