Bladder neck contracture
I have a bladder neck contracture that makes urinating difficult I was able to insert catheters with difficulty so I was not terribly concerned about being very far from competent medical care. It is a 4 hour drive to a hospital with a urologist on call and my local very good primary care doctor told

Post-TURP: Catheter in for how long?
Hi All, Just had a TURP and looking very forward to having my catheter removed. Just curious what the typical amount of days after surgery is for removal, based on your experiences. Also, any advice on what to do or not do after it is removed? Thanks brothers!

Newly Diagnosed Prostate Cancer. Gleason score 9, PSA 1.4 at age 58.
SO glad to have found this Forum! I guess I have a rare form of PC that does not report PSA. This summer started having problems peeing, like blocked at times. Google told me it was BPH and started taking some natural supplements. 45 days later finally called Teledoc, and was put on Flomax.

Unable to go to bathroom
Unable to go to bathroom at all unless with catheter or self cath (been this way for 2.5 months). Started with having turp. Doctors say prostrate is too enlarged and removing it is not an option. Has anyone experienced this and if so what helped. This is miserable. I’m curious if chemo shrinks it if

Wishing everyone a better 2021
Hi everyone, I wish everyone a wonderful 2021 and hope all our PSA's reduce or at least go down next year. For me, the COVID-19 2020 has been a good opportunity to get my APCa treatments out of the way. 12 months ago I prepared to go in for my prostate biopsy and TURP. I went in on 24 Dec 19 and

CLL and melanoma
Hello This is my first post on this forum. I am a 58 your old man, and I was diagnosed with CLL two years ago. I have been asymptomatic, and have been monitored on a “watch and wait” basis, with blood tests every 6 months. A couple of weeks ago, I became concerned about a mole on my back, and went to

Another unique mystery about the liver.
Every now and again I like to post some interesting facts about this most wonderous organ. Those of you who have completed the two online liver courses, "Liver Disease: Looking after Your Liver" and "Liver Transplant: the Ins and Outs" will know of Dr Patricia Laylor. Back in 2017 Dr Laylor and I

Anal sex after TURP surgery
I had TURP surgery in June, the doctor removed 1 1/2 times the size of a golf ball of my prostate he said. Which is a huge amount. I’m 60 years old and have used toys with electrostim etc. couple questions 1: Did the electrical stimulation cause the prostate to become this large or was I just predisposed

Belly button abscess recurring
Hi guys and girls again, You are my source of information because I don’t have a consultant as I’m on W & W. It’s about the 4th time in 2 years that I’ve had an abscess in my belly button which has become infected and treated with antibiotics. Is this related to my CLL ? In fact this was how My CLL was

Cracked nails
I would like to thank the person or persons who suggested to use Hard As Nails to help nails from cracking when using Imbruvica/Ibrutinib. I started using it and it is helping . I also found out that Vitry nail care for nail repair is also good but more expensive.

Skin cancer on my eyelid
Hi I’m feeling pretty angry with my GP! Despite my insistent assertive concerns with a lump on my right eye ‘that I also saw the Gp for last years” he wouldn’t see me. He said that it was probably just a cyst! I paid private and had my thoughts confirmed that it is skin cancer. It’s going to cost me
