I had my prostate size reduced about 50 % using a Laser to Vaporize it.
When i left the hospital the next day i had Spasms & frequency.
When i had to go I HAD TO GO
My Urologistput me on Cipro & Urelle which helped the pain & spasm right
away.
What has me concerned is now (5 weeks Later) I still go alot & sometimes
have a slight burning.
Is this normal or should i be cured by now ?

Pretty much normal based on my experience...should settle down by 3
months. During the procedure, the tissue was irritated pretty severely
and it takes a while to heal. Your symptoms are similiar to the ones
that I had.

Thanks for your reply.
It makes me feel a little better.
Is there anything you did to make yourself more comfortable ?
How do you go anywhere in the car.
