My poor GP has probably said this to me a dozen times. (The last couple reminding me how often she has said this) If you go to your surgeon and don't get relief see someone else. *Repeat as often as needed. I had horrible post op pain that had me taking those horrible narcotics for pain l0ng after I should have needed them and after seeing someone new found out it was some staples from the surgery that had somehow ended up in my bladder. Once they were removed I was pain free. I'm not a doctor but how my urologist found the source of the pain was to put a camera in my urethera and simply look to see what was going on. *Note this is pain free as they numb you up before the doctor goes in.
Considered the gold standard of therapy for severe urinary incontinence following prostate cancer surgery. It may take 4 to 6 weeks to heal from surgery, during which the pump cannot be activated. Possible complications include infection, erosion of tissue around the implants, and malfunctioning of the device.
Wove- sorry to hear of your troubles, does NOT sound pleasant. Normally I’d say this is a Q for your Dr., but it sounds like the advice he’s giving may not be working out as it should. Hopefully there are some other guys here who’ve had this procedure & can share their experiences. Or would be good to hear from a medical professional, preferably one w/ some urological experience and/or familiarity w/ this type of procedure. My own non-medical opinion is yes, you should be getting better now, not worse. Best of luck finding a solution & please let us know what you find out & how you’re doing...
