UTI’s
Hello, I have had 3 or 4 UTI’s since visiting Zagreb in May 2022. I had ‘retention’ of Approx 2000ml when a catheter was fitted. I have had a ‘TURP’ prostate operation in November 2022 and I am now trying to a) reduce the blood in my pee and b) the number of times in the day that I have to go. The Doctor

scans after chemo looking promising
Diagnosed with low PSA - a Turp surgery biopsy diagnosed Gleason 9, scans showed spread to pelvic lymph nodes. Lupron and Zytiga for 6 months, and then scans showed spread to cervical lymph nodes. Only 6 months to castrate resistant. Just finished 4th round of Chemo (Dox with Carboplatin) Scans

Finasteride with Tamsulosin
Hi, I am just going onto a course of tablets subscribed to me for an enlarged prostate, Finasteride along with Tamsulosin which I am already taking. My erections have been pretty much none existent since I have been on the Tamsulosin so am definitely worried that I will loose it completely with this

High Eosinophils in PCa
Anyone else with regualrly high eosiniphils? My eosinophils have been elevated for at least two years. Most of the times I brought that up with several different doctors they all just said "it's probably allergies" and dismissed it. One doctor tested for parasites (Endolimax nana trophozoites) and

How fast does ELIGARD drop PSA? My urinary symptoms are worsening despite the injection, TURP and Testosterone under 20.
My PSA was 9.75 (07/28/2022) and testosterone 43 (08/17/2022) when I got my first ELIGARD 45mg dose on 08/18/2022. I'd been in a full time Foley catheter for two weeks at that blood On 09/06/2022 PSA had dropped to 3.95 (18 days) and Testosterone to 17. On 09/23 it had only dropped to 3.80 (5 weeks

Introducing myself. Have mostly lurked for a couple of months, but time to formally say I'm here and start asking my own questions.
Hello all, my name is Dave. I've just updated my profile with all medical info on my case. Hate that I need to be in this particular club, but glad there's such a great resource to learn from in the form of this forum. I'm stage IVB (cT3b, cN1, cM1b, PSA: 3.8, Grade Group: 4) - no hint of cancer until

Somatic testing on TURP sample ( vs biopsy)
Is the block from TURP equivalent for doing a somatic HRR testing vs a sample from needle biopsy.

Retrograde ejaculation after turps
I doubt you will ejaculate any more more then you then you already have this because during surgery they destroy part of the mechanism that makes you ejaculate retro grade ejaculation is a myth it does not go backwards it was made up bye surgeons to cover up what they did doing any kind of exercise

Is retrograde ejaculation after TURP surgery reversible?
I've had retrograde ejaculation every since having had TURP surgery for BPH in Sep 2021. I recently started doing kegel exercises, having read that it may help reverse retrograde ejaculation. Has anyone tried this, and have you been successful? For the first time today since the TURP surgery, I noticed

Hard time urinating and weak stream
Hi everyone, my Dad started having hard time urinating, he needs to push to get it started and has a weak stream. The PSMA scan back in June 2022 did show some residual cancer in the left side of prostate gland but we were told that the radiation and Zytiga are still working and will eventually get rid

Does anyone have symptoms that are linked to urinary problems. I had TURPS surgery about 3 years ago which went ok but my nocturia symptoms have never gone away. I often wake up at night 3 or 4 times with the urge to urinate both nothing comes. When I have a bad night it often coincides with a bad bout

EBRT or Surgery.
Hi Tall Allen or anyone, what are your thoughts on this. My urologist informs me I need some sort of treatment for my Grade 2 Gleason 7 3+4. Prostatectomy Surgery he is saying will be my best outcome. My radiation oncologist says because of my hesitancy when trying to pass urine, my retention, my slow

PSA rising
My husband has aggressive prostate cancer. He was diagnosed 9/20/2019. Gleason score 9. Because he is 93 he is only treated with ADT. His PSA was 100.4 when he started treatment. He had a TURP and found the cancer. My question is can he start having side effects after being on ADT for 2 years.

Decision time. Input welcome
Saw my MO yesterday. I need to make a decision by next week on how to proceed. My personal life is imploding and all I see there is having to sell my house and move to... someplace -- long story, but everything I've tried has come up short. BTW, I live by myself with no close friends and only a very

Catheter Removed
Hello my fellow brothers and caregivers. I had my Foley remove 2 days ago and man what a relief. The biggest relief was I am able to urinate on my own with a good flow and it's clear. I went to see two other Urologists yesterday and both confirmed that due to my Pca, TURP would be the best treatment
