This is day 2 post PVP and will pass along the results.
PVP at 2:00PM, took about an hour. Home by 5:00 with
a catheter. Return to office in the AM and catheter
removed. Finally peed successfully about 2:00 or so.
A little pinkish, but no pain. In fact no pain at all.
Little sensitive where the catheter entered, but thats
it. By evening and into the next day, flow is good,
no pain at all, no blood at all.
Purpose of the PVP was not so much flow, as huge
bladder retention. Won't know the outcome of the retention
until the next visit to the uro in a couple of weeks.
He has said do NOTHING strenuous for 4 weeks, he wants to
see no bleeding caused by over activity.
So....in my case, this was an unbelievably simple operation.
The largest trauma was the nervousness prior to getting on
the table. I feel just great !
