Baby Brian Posted September 20, 2015 Author Share Posted September 20, 2015 Thanks all, but it's like the bad doctors say- the fourth time's the charm. I really don't know if this has gotten it all yet, and I really won't know for sure for another week or two. I'm hopeful to suspect my recover this time will go a lot better and faster. And I promise no long plan rides for at lest a few months this time too. Today hasn't been so bad for pain, I'm mostly just uncomfortable down there. I Link to comment

Bettypooh Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I avoid pain meds till I can't say no because of my addictive tendencies and my history of weakness in saying "no" to things which make me feel good even when I know they're bad for me But it seems you're doing OK, especially with the bleeding and clots, and that's a lot better news than from past surgeries so maybe this time IS the charm Everyone hopes so!

Baby Brian Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Yeah, I do guess an addictive tendency Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 So apparently the blood clot I had before was just a prelude. I just peed out another blood clot after waking this morning, Link to comment
Diapered Dave Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 So how's your progress, Brian? still bleeding? Are you finally peeing freely, with no control? Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 Well, unfortunately Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 So a month and a half in and my bleeding has stopped and I'm no longer in any pain. I do still get sore at times though, which is pretty much on par with the other ones I've had. 1 Link to comment
Dill_Pickle Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Only occasionally sore sounds like major progress! Link to comment

Craisler Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 The symptoms you describe are common to many people experiencing urinary incontinence. The bladder retains urine at night because gravity and the weight of the other organs are no longer pressing on the bladder. Retention while sitting is caused by the bulk or the diaper and/or the weight of the body compressing the urethra. Link to comment

Craisler Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 The problem I see is that your desires and the doctor's objectives may not necessarily coincide Link to comment

Dill_Pickle Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I am amazed at what I am learning that my docs don't seem to know..... from a urologist that won't discuss caths or mention PT, which is effective for me...remembering that my nerves are still connnected downstairs. To learning about the uses of nitroglycerine and topical benzodiazepenes to reading up on niacin... To the fact that heat, so far, is the most effective muscle relaxant I have been able to find (and yes, for the prostate). Link to comment

Dill_Pickle Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Eir, Too bad Brian can't tell us of his progress anymore. Tell me a bit more about this training if you would...my PT has me working on training my pelvic floor muscles. Link to comment
Eir Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Draw a line on a spare paper. Now, above this, draw a half circle. It should look like a dome shape. Draw one line at 90 degrees, cutting this in half. Now draw lines at 45 degrees. This produces four wedges. Now cut each one in half. Number the wedges 1 to 8, from left to right. 1 to 4 represents ability, 5 to 8 represents need, 5 being slight need, 8 being sheer desperation. Train your bladder to tell you how full you are. With construction paper, create the 8 slice wedge, number them 1 to 8. Now, the game piece. Make envelopes for each day. You earn a reward for a week of good behavior, (pizza and beer, chocolate, etc.) Good behavior is the desired outcome. For me it was being able to use public restrooms, eventually urinals for urinating. The marker, the most important part of the game-piece. It moves with each successive continuous day towards the reward day, one need not reset, simply re do that day. The days: Day 1 numbered to Day 7 (name your reward) Disclaimer, there was a brief period while I lost urinary continence, but it was well worth it. I wore guards for about 3 months. This was caused by losing the super-hold, people with paururesis can be known to have 'iron bladders,' yet in reality this is not a superpower, it is their body not letting them go. Link to comment
