    • Oh, alright 👍  Didn't realize that you could post there. I thought you could only post in the sub categories ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    • Okay, so... I went in on Friday, went to preop around 6 pm. Then waited on a bed for a bit before being brought into operating room. The anesthesiologist injected something in my arm, said it would burn a little (but it didnt) and 10 seconds later I was gone. When I woke up I had no idea what had happened but felt like I had to pee. I was a bit out of it so I asked the nurse if she could help me pee and she said i had a cath and that was probably why it was uncomfortable. I felt a drop between my legs and it was blood. I rested for half an hour, asked for some painkiller which she gave me. Then after coming to myself I was sent home, with a catheter, some painkillers and some antibiotics. After I got home i had drank water to clear my urine and after an hour or two it was clear (as expected as I had no surgery inside my bladder) but still I was bleeding from the urethra, so my diapers (I used pull ons) had some blood in them. After 24 hours I was sick of the catheter and didnt want to sleep with it another night. The bleeding had also stopped, I snipped off the catheter tip in the shower and removed it and put on a diaper. I kept drinking a little, and at first it was a little pink, some blood clots, but it cleared up after a few hours. I realised that my urethra was probably swollen as peeing was a bit difficult. I think it is still a little bit swollen but it keeps getting better. A few things I noticed: the place where I had complained about pain (left side of "inside" where I thought the EUS was) was indeed the place where I had the most pain after the surgery, so my locating of the sphincter was 100% correct. I had asked AI before if I could really pinpoint my sphincter like that and it told me no, especially when I feel it only on one side as it should be symmetrical. Turns out I was right. As for my incontinence, so far it is like expected. I have some control because I still have an inner sphincter, but things like sitting down will cause leaks. Also I am not sure if I should call it "control". It is more like sometimes my inner sphincter decides to hold back and I have to actively let go, but then it starts again and I just leak. I have not tried to see what happens if I dont pee. When it "leaks" I cant stop it. It is like my muscles are not there anymore, and all discomfort is also gone. Maybe parts of it this "all discomfort gone" is the painkillers, but hopefully it will stay this way. I am still on Tramadol. As for the pain, it was surprisingly little pain. A little right after the surgery, enough to make me ask for something for pain, and of course SOME later. But all in all, I expected worse. Also recovery was faster than expected. I should still not lift heavy things and all that but I pee kind of normal, no blood in urine. I saw the doctor again today and he showed me pictures he had taken with cystoscope while doing the surgery, showed me the prostate, sphincter and where he cut. For people who havent looked a lot into how things work down there, there are two sphincters and I only touched the outer one. I didnt want constant dripping which you get if you also remove bladder neck. My experience may therefore be different from those who had both...
    • yea, make several 2 inches long slits lengthwise and 2-3 per row on the plastic shell from front to back where the paddings are. Diaper up, and then put on another diaper over it without any slits (obviously- to prevent leaking).
