Problem in passing urine after undergoing 35 cycles of radiation in pelvis area.
I had TURP in Oct 2016 & as bleeding was not coming under control had radiation. Now I have problem in passing urine. Is this expected after radiation? Will it improve with time. Can someone share his experience on this ?

TURP for BHP - removes the prostate from the inside out
It seems like this would be generally useful, unless one hopes to rehabilitate the prostate and heal it. TURP leaves the surrounding tissue in place, and leaves the "capsule" of the prostate in place, but there is no question it is "debulking", and apparently it is thought of as a minor surgery. Why

Bilateral nephrostomies and bladder infections
My husband has had bilateral nephrostomies fitted since Feb this year, he had kidney stents before that. His cancer is advanced and diagnosed in 2013 after bladder retention caused him to be admitted to hospital ( we are in UK). It was decided to put him on hormone injections and he has them 6 monthly

New here, strange symptoms and AF aged 29
My 16 month old daughter was born with
coarctation
of
the
aorta
and a very rare heart condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome. So, I suppose I'm wondering the following: 1) Does all of this sound like AF? And the random heart quivering?

HIFU for Stage 2?
I saw where HIFU is being promoted by Cleveland Clinic Canada. It is only just being made available (at very few facilities) in the US. I am in the queue to get IMRT external beam radiation as my TURP'd prostate not considered a candidate for surgery. I'd have to reach into my own pocket to go with HIFU

UroLift anybody?
Hey everybody, Many of us suffer with BPH. It's now time for me to deal with it. Not that I haven't had a stupendously large prostate, that has been problematic for a few years now. Of course it eventually blocked my urethra, plus cystitis, and my uro at the time hadn't a clue. Now to fix it, they want

This was my Journey - It May be Helpful to You
I had my TURP (Trans Urethral Resection of the Prostate) in October of 2011 at age 65. Subsequent analysis of the material removed showed cancer cells in less than 5% of the material and Gleason graded 3+3=6. I was staged T1a by my urologist. To say I was shocked when I was told I had the big C, is

Enlarged Prostate advice needed
This is my first post, and I hope I am in the correct forum. I have a greatly enlarged prostate, over 170 g, and my urination is weak. I do take lots of herbal pills to help. Anyone know the least harmful method to increase urination? The TURP is to extreme for me, as I do not want to have permanent

Relieved, but still have a concern
After having a TURP in October the biopsy showed some PC. As I am in a fairly good state of health for a 70 year old it was totally unexpected and I was dumbfounded. Saw a second Urologist and was told my MRI and bone scans were clear and that my PSA was 0.3, Gleason score 7 and the stage was TB1.

ALL HAIL THE MARATHONERS!!
PLease add your thoughts about these two amazing C25K'ers who completed a marathon on Sunday 12th April. I think they are incredible and just great. To think just two years ago, both girls were sleeping in a cardboard box underneath Waterloo Bridge, sharing a bottle of turps and swearing at passers

I take two to five minutes to initiate urination.If I am mentally distressed then I take much longer to initiate urination.
I have been operated upon by TURP for removal of enlarged prostate 10 and 12 years back twice. I was advised to take Urimax- D at bed time 5 months back which is of some help.Should I continue with this medicine for ever or reduce/stop its usage and when?

Restart of RA medication after an operation
I've had a TURP last week. If you don't know what that is then please ignore this question. 4 days after the op I re-started Sulfasalazine. Today I am about to re-start MTX. CIMZIA will have to wait another 3 weeks at least, I was told. Has anybody been in a similar situation? Are there things I should
