RARP Good News

Bill , without the flow issues life could almost be back to normal. No one likes a rise but it is slow. Hopefully all goes well for the future and the next dilatation may sort the problem.


Thanks Chris

Hi Bill,


I would hate a 3.5 hour stiffy. I wouldn't know what to do with the remaining 3.49 hours. 😊

We have a bull in the field next door - he seems to be able to manage quite a few during the day. Don't know where he gets the energy!

Yes Chris thanks, I should be grateful really, I was just disappointed yesterday with .02 rise in six months.


I'll avoid another dilation as long as possible. I think I read that after each time it's done when it starts to recur it gets a bit worse than the last time. Mine was only stretching, I want to avoid any cutting in there if possible.


Wishing you all the best with your ongoing treatment


Cheers


Bill

The Bulls obviously not on Hormone Therapy!🤣🤣

Latest update:


Had a PSA in May which was 0.05 (forgot to update here). Another last month which was 0.05 as well. So a full year at 0.05 as it did at 0.03. Let's see what happens in May.


ED - Invicorp always available and plenty prescribed. It works fairly well but the glans never swells at all which is annoying. Any one else get that? Also the occasional failure which I think is just hitting the wrong spot.


Urge and frequency still a nuisance but manageable and unlikely to change now.


Still passing 2 catherers (16 &18) twice a week.


I don't post often but follow all of the posts and reading about some of the problems others have makes me appreciate my current position.


All the best to you all and you supporters.


Cheers


Bill

Bill, fairly good news on the PSA, make sure you don't miss any tests. 


Thanks Chris
