Enlarged Prostate
I would like to get some experiences of people that have taken
Flomax
or other medicines to reduce the prostate size. I have an allergy to sulfa, what makes me a little nervous about using

Avodart and Flomax
Is it safe to use Avodart and
Flomax
with advanced prostate cáncer? I am tired of getting up to pee 7 or 8 times a night.

Flomax and Avodart
A question: is it safe to take
Flomax
and Avodart to improve urine flow? I am tired of having to get up to pee 7 or 8 times a night.

Urinary bother; is Flomax a solution?
Does anyone know if
Flomax
will help? Or are there other solutions? I don’t want to take
flomax
if i don’t have yo as it screws with BP, but i will if it would give me a better night’s sleep. Doc will give me an Rx—but will it make a difference? Need your advice, warriors.

Day 8 post SBRT
Started two
Flomax
a day. Day 2- Only peed once that night, urgency improved. Day 3- Did not need to pee overnight. Back to one
Flomax
. Day 4 - GI urgency, some mucus passed, watery blood on toilet paper. Butt feels like it did after TRUS biopsy.

Experiances with Kaiser SF?
My question is about the long term use of
Flomax
and the unlikely event that I will every have any sort of erection. Appreciate your comments. T

restricted urinary flow
Flomax
is incompatible with anti- depress and sleep meds, I have to take to alleviate ADT side effects, and takes a month to work. Appreciate words of medical wisdom, other than "go with the flow" :)

Several Peeing Wake Ups Nightly
I am on
Flomax
even and still not seeming to help. I don't drink crazy at night and just normal throughout the day. How much of this is the drugs and the disease? Lupron 3mth, daro and prednisone daily and vitamin D I also take a heartburn med and a statin.

Enhancing my urinating experience?
From those who’ve gone down this path I would love to know your opinion on side effects and results. 2) Aside from
Flomax
, which did nothing for me, has anyone had any success enhancing the flow within doing TURP? 3) Any thoughts on which, radiation or TUAP, should I do first?

UCLA Viewray Sbrt summary
Taking one .4 mg of
flomax
. The last two days I’ve had some GI “bother”. 4 of the 5 sessions were 25-30 minutes long, no problem. The 4th session I miss judged my water intake and my bladder was only half full. Had to drink water in the tube and that one lasted an hour.

paxlovid and abiraterone
He is on that,
flomax
and lupron. I know it’s better to take paxlovid before it gets much worse. We can’t reach the doctor till tomorrow, so I was just curious what you all have learned.

My treatment decisions
I took
flomax
and that helped a lot. other than that, I didn’t experience anything else but some fatigue after playing a sport for an hour. The 28 sessions were a grind but all in all, I think it was the right decision for me.

Barrier for RA and other questions
My doc proscribed
flomax
, which seems to help a lot, but also finesteride. I've been reading about that and it seems like it has some severe side effects. I wonder is it worth taking or can I forego that? My ability to have a strong flow has improved with just the tamsulosin.

3 Months post ADT (Orgovyx) Still having hot flashes and fatigue-doing blood test in two weeks..for hopefully nadir..
(not taking
flomax
and taking 5 mg cialis every day). I don;t "feel" the Testosterone is back yet at all? Could I get a timetable as to T coming back and what I should be "feeling" and when do the post symtomology (i.e. fatique,hot flashes, etc. ) fade and go away?

Low Dose Seed Brachytherapy Side Effects
Today RO changed me to
Flomax
0.8mg (x2 normal dose) at bedtime in the hope of helping nighttime issues. Any ideas why it’s always at night, between 2-4AM, when the alfuzosin should be at its highest blood level?

RT, keep thy bladder full.
Not sure asking for
Flomax
is correct, as I said I have no prostate nor flow issues.

Still on
flomax
. Every time I get CT o r MRi it creates artifacts and interferes with the test. I would not recommend it to anyone. I was first with radiation treatments to receive from my local doctor. Even had to add extra wire
