It's been 21 days since my PVP.  I am thrilled.  It was slow in the
start but just as people here told me, it will improve and it did. I
can pee better and I'm off of that dreaded Flomax that dulled my
brain.  I feel that my IQ is improving daily and that's terrific.  I
can now remember how to chew gum.
   I'm glad that I chose a pvp. So far no incontinence, I'm not
impotent and I'm feeling so much better. Should have done this years
ago.

Al, can you tell me what symptoms you had with Flomax?  I was on it
for a few years and had periods of confusion, loss of thoughts,
inability to finish sentences.  I think people should know about this.
This was in my mid 50's.

Barry and others:

My experience with Flomax was both good and bad.  I had used Saw
Palmetto for a very long time with fairly good results.  Upon a visit
to my urologist, he suggested Flomax instead of Saw Pal. Well....I did
and for a while I was much better.  Better pee flow etc.  But I soon
had ED.  I lost my libido and had almost no ejaculate if and when I
could have sex.  But....even bigger and worse...I had brain fog.  I
had it bad.  It was after I followed this news group that I connected
the dots.  I came to feel it was the Flomax.  So now after my PVP....I
do seem to be much much better.  I don't know if it was the Flomax or
the general loss of sleep because of getting up to pee....but I do
know that I feel smarter now.  Hope it continues.
    But....post PVP....I am still not sleeping as well as I wish I
could.  I still have to get up several times at night....just like
before.  The improvement is a better flow rate. Besides that....I do
feel better.
