Hi all, into my 5th week since prostate removal,have any of you experienced the following.


1: started feeling better after week 4 but feels like a brick up my bum has caused toothache in the area.


2: 95% bladder control but bladder doesn’t hold much before I have to go.


3: dick still seems to ache like it’s been snapped, and it’s like a bit of roadkill.


4: keep getting pain 4” below belly button.


5: feels sometime like someone is sticking pins in me around the surgery area.


6: in week 5 I have started to feel more uncomfortable in the lower abdomen than in week 4


Any-input appreciated, I was diagnosed stage 3 Gleason 7 aggressive prostate cancer

Hi,


it is early days and you are still healing inside - most noted your point 4 and 5.


You say week 5 - are you due your first follow up appointment post surgery soon ? These are questions / issues you should raise then ?
