Now That It's Over

Lots of men feel the same way as you about the op, but lots of others choose RT as the less invasive option.

I couldn't even begin to imagine how I would choose if I were a Man so I hope you can get all the guidance and help you need to make a decision you are happy with. Once you make it there should be no going back.

I understand your thoughts about the use of a prostate post snip, kids etc. However some men do find dry orgasms a bit weird. If I am honest, as a woman I find the thought of that something of a bonus. I don't think losing other items can quite compare, your appendix yes a relatively useless thing, but your nipples mmmm not so sure Sean Conery has very attractive nipples for a Man?

how shocking, I am usually a very conservative poster!

must be the 3 glasses of prosecco!

Best wishes for Wednesday

Can'take help with what the items might be as I didn't have to take anything but I just wanted to wish you well with your op. It is just over a year since mine and it seems like a lifetime away now. Just be kind to yourself after as I am sure recovery is quicker if you remain active but don't overdo it.

All the best.

Good Luck tomorrow Glen.

It's a new month and you'll start a new stage of your life.

Wishing you all the best

Best wishes for tomorrow,the only thing that springs to mind are laxatives or antibiotics ,but my antibiotics were given intravenously by the anaesthetist. Anaesthetic and tablets ect can make you constipated so remember no straining to pass that first motion post op. Take it easy but keep mobile.

Thanks Chris

Very very best wishes.
You'll be fine.
Do NOTHING for 8 weeks. And I mean NOTHING. Let yourself heal. It's a bigger op than you think.
My fingers crossed

Hi nice people and now it really is over, thank goodness!

Well, I'm home again.  To be honest, it wasn't too traumatic.  Walked down to theatre and laid down on the couch and the anesthetist said that I would get some oxygen and then a big injection to put me to sleep.  Took a few deep breaths and went out like a light. Funny oxygen, lol.  Next thing I knew I was in recovery in some sort of "dreamworld".  I vaguely remember some of the trip up to the ward and then not much after that till they woke me for blood pressure etc.

Had a bit of local pain around the "funny bits".  Got about two hours sleep that night; one heavy snorer, one heavy breather and one guy who was having a loud conversation with someone all bloody night, lol.

Had an "accident" last night in bed but once I'd got the bags in the right place, all was fine.  Dreamt that I'd stolen a helicopter!!

A bit "leaky" at times and some blood in my urine from getting up and sitting down again when any pressure is put on the catheter, but ok if I don't move around too much. Apparently it's called bladder spasm as the bladder doesn't take too kindly to having a plastic tube stuck into it. 

Luckily I have one of those reclining sofas so I can adjust it a bit like the hospital bed for the best position.  My daughter has come down for a few days to be a "nurse" with the missus, lol.  

Not in any pain at all at the moment.

If anyone waiting for the op needs some first hand experience of the op, then please contact me; I'll be more than happy to share.

Thank you ALL very much for your support; it made the time leading up to the op much easier for me.

I wonder if I can get some sexy 23 year old blonde "bimbo" to help me test out my ED in the weeks to come??  Just kidding, Lol. 

Take care my friends and I will keep posting.

Glen

Glad that really is over for you Glen. Now spend the recovery time wisely and rest. Don't even THINK about sexy 23 year old bimbos or it will excite you too much and put your recovery back.
