I'm 57 and have had a TURP and on Proscar and Cardura. My Uro says I can
have a TUNA and get off the meds. What is totally involved in the
proceedure and what are the down sides. I know the upside, its not having
the meds and and frequent urination. Thanks

You should go to Google Groups and read the archives for this group, my
impression is that TUNA isn't very successful. Some have had no
results and some who have had good results have found them to be very
temporary. I'd read up on it before doing it.
BTW, you had a TURP and you still need to be on Proscar and Cardura???
I thought the TURP would eliminate that need?
