Thanks, wishing you a speedy recovery and a quick return to a normal lifestyle.

Yes, indeed :)

Thanks...I'll let the guys know.

Yes I would... Great value with little to no bloat wear

Mic troubles are a pain

@@davidprocter3578 it truly is a engineering wonder worth maintaining

I was very lucky indeed to see this marvel of engineering working on the day I was there.

Yes there were signs warning of blue algae so the water is not safe.

Glad I can be of some reference. Once your recovered which I am sure you will. I do hope you give addressing what you eat a serious go. Good food has improved my well being soo much I really do not want to go back to my old ways.

That's interesting that you given the option of staying awake during the TURP. Sounds like you had a good recovery too. I had a lot of trouble with UTIs, pain and bleeding leading up to the op that I think complicated things. Shows how different the same process can be for each man

Wow, that is totally different.. either your one tough guy or the lazer is the way to go.

@@ivonvoid A lot depends on the proficiency of the Dr but I believe Laser done right has less side effects . It’s been 5 years since surgery with great results, getting up once a night most times. 78 years old.

@@Klunker1 Your feedback is just the sort of info guys need when deciding what their options are. 5 years and still good. That is great news. I'm doing well now i've recovered .fingers crossed.

Where? Link?

Wow Morocco. greetings from Perth West Australia on the other side of the earth

イオンでの買い物や友達とのランチやコーヒーを楽しみました。幸運なことに、友達が車で連れて行ってくれたので、バスに乗る必要はありませんでした

It's the G84 no mistake. We got at 300AUD but I checked the web site today and the price is back at 449AUD today!

Would love to review the moto edge 50 fusion as we really like the moto series. 300AUD is about 200USD so the price is about the same. Have to see if Motorola will sponsor a review of edge :)

Lame duck might be our next cookingr video

Thankyou I love Morioka and have many great memories here

Wow dealing with type 1 on top of everything else. I know I felt really weak and tied after the op and spent the days laying down and didn't feel like eating much. My wife helped a lot because if you don't eat well it makes it even harder to recover. Getting up too quickly made me feel light headed and fainting and hitting your head would be a risk. Keep your phone near by to call for help and be very careful getting up. I do hope you can find someone to check in on you.

Thankyou for your kind words

Thanks. Sorry to hear about your tumor and the surgery required. Just having BPH, TURP and all the things that come with that was a experience I really don't want to ever re-experience again. I can understand your feelings about the surgery and living with the results

I've seen pros and cons for both so I really don't know which would have been better or would it be pretty much the same. I however give feedback on my own personal experience and hope its of some reference for other men when deciding what's best for them.

@@ivonvoid I'm been talking with someone that had the turp. It only last 3 years for him. I myself had the holep procedure. As my doctor talk with me about all the different procedures he has done and now picks the hoLEP. Over all the other procedures he was done in the past. He calls the hoLEP the one and done. Meaning it's got much a high success rate. It will last me my lifetime. He's had to redo many turps during giving the holeps to these past failures of turps patients. Now he only does green light laser or hoLEP. He also sends out patients to other doctors in wanting the resumz procedures. For those younger guys still wanting to father children as a option. I can only tell from my experience from having the hoLEP done. Very little bad side effects from it period. Drinking tons of water during the first 30 days is the worse of it.

Having issues after a few years would be very disappointing if you looked after your health to avoid such things. I wonder how hoLEP prevents or gets around the issue of a prostrate growing back. I did watch some videos on the procedure and and thought since they both remove tissue the grow back problem should be there for basically all types of surgery

Thanks for the info. As this is my first TURP I really hope it will last. Can you tell me how long it was before the flow became less and less and was the flow reduction still something you can live with or required fixing again?

first time was laser surgery stream like teen for several weeks it slowed but was not terrible after that it lasted ten years before it went bad , next was conventional surgery less pain but less stream perhaps because of it being done before they now have a product called optilume , that helps with scaring i would ask your Doc about it .@@ivonvoid

Thanks for the comment. End of Feb!... I see they are making you wait just as I had to. All the best for your surgery

Wishing you a good op and recovery Mike

All the best with your TURP and wishing you a speedy recovery

It's a real concern and yes you will most likely notice a difference. I think the degree depends on how much they remove, where and your body make up. In my case I noticed a difference straight away and as time has gone by it's stayed pretty much the same. Lets say it's at around 40% where 100% is perfect. If I ever needed surgery again I would look at something that would avoid retogade if possible to try and preserve full or whatever function is left. Being able to sleep and pee again was such a relief after years of suffering but then there is this slight downside.

Interesting to hear how well PAE has worked for you and soo quickly too. Starving the prostate of blood seems very effective and less painful than TURP. I hope to never need surgery again but if I do...

What are the side effects

Hi I’m now almost 8 months into the PAE post time and happy to report all is as it was when I was 25 years old. Great flow, no urgency. Now being off the Finasteride (which in reading research) have found has very bad possible metabolic impacts on health (search on Pub med). I was on it almost 14 years. Now normal sexual functions have returned (which the Finasteride effected in the way of erectile problems) and everything is normal. For smaller Prostrate’s it might not be as effective but mine was 84cc and that’s a very good size for the procedure.

@@vtrials9577 Thanks for the update.

That is also my PAE result. Nothing short of fantastic, I don’t trust the Urology industry. They are invested in PSA and owned by diaper makers Kimberly Clark!

I am not sure if HoLEP is better or not as I've only had the TURP. However they say that If you'd like to return to your daily routines in the shortest time possible, then HoLEP may be a suitable option. TURP, on the other hand, brings the fewest risks and complications and is often used to treat issues brought on by the other treatment options.

Indeed it is. I hadn't noticed I was pronouncing it incorrectly until a few days after uploading.

I know how painful the whole living with catheters can be. It is something I never want to repeat so I watch my diet and health. I do hope you can hang in there while your waiting for your TURP.

The nurses instructed me before the operation that I would have to organize a ride home and to not drive. I could have driven home but I think it is good advise as I was very sore and any driving would have been not very safe. I would have caused even more bleeding and pain. Moving the steering wheel hurt later when I tried driving

@@ivonvoid Thanks. Really appreciate for the prompt reply.

Sorry to hear that more surgery is required. I did a second video explaining my trails after surgery which was quite testing. I think your advice to look at all the options is good. I looked into Urolift 2 among others as well tho it's hard to tell what method is the best. I did talk to as many guys as I could to get their first hand experience to help me decide. th-cam.com/video/L-KvgHerE9Y/w-d-xo.html

Uro lift !

Thanks for the feedback. The bleeding can be quite frustrating and alarming, but there is nothing much you can do about it other than avoid exerting yourself. I had the dribbling too but eventually that too went away. Hope you can get back to a normal game of golf soon :)

Thankyou. It is a very special place for me as I have a lot of memories here.

I can relate as I was anxious while at the same time I knew I needed the surgery. I've recovered well and am enjoying life as I used too before BPH. Wishing you a good outcome and quick recovery

How did your Turp procedure go? I'm trying to decide what procedure to do. Holep, Turp, Tulsa-pro.. My dad had the Turp procedure. I'm doing research on it. I'd like to hear how you are progressing.

Thankyou, I feel so happy to know this info might be of some help 😃

HOLEP does look really good so don't limit yourself to TURP. I was referred to a top Urological Surgeon in my state and he reassured me that TURP was the way to go and he had done other methods in the past like Ural-lift but preferred TURP. I asked multiple times about other surgery methods which he said I could look into them if I wanted but he could not guarantee the outcome or how long it would be effective for. I was in such a bad state with catheters, pain and I needed surgery yesterday and was concerned shopping around would delay my surgery by months. None of the doctors seem to want to take action without months of consulting, tests and monitoring, plus there are the waiting lists!. As HOLEP is fairly new I would look into it if I needed more surgery in future years (Here is hoping I don't need more surgery).

HOLEP takes a skilled surgeon who has done many operations and knows how to use the laszer and can-do it very with total control.

I agree, the skill of the surgeon is soo important not matter the type of operation

Sorry about the slow response. There is a difference and there this stinging pain for the first 3 months that slowly gets better. With each passing months things are getting back to normal. 5 months out I would say 80% Expect a long recovery period and some changes but you will be able to still enjoy life given enough time to heal up. Hope this helps
