What is the typical wait after the surgery before one can use his auto
again?

I'd like to add to that:

What is the estimated time before I can use the ATV again? (It's rough
ground!).

PVP scheduled for the 8th October. I depart for London on the 6th and
hope/expect to return on the 11th.

Best of luck Derry, keep us posted when you get back, I have still not heard
anything from my GP, I am going to email Gordon Muir again to see if he
would send some information to the Uro and GP, this may make a difference.

I might also ask Laserscope to send some more info as well, they have
already sent some to Mr Almond.

I have emailed the London Urology Centre and Nicky is arranging for more
information to be sent to my GP and to Mr Almond (Uro) again.

I will keep you posted on any progress.

Van,

I drove an automatic two hours after dischage and  walked for an hour. There
is no pain. I think the concern is tearing the cautherized surface. This
tissue is probably very thin. I also think that the medications make you
feel better than one should.
