Retzius sparing RARP back in 2019.
No problems since albeit one episode of retention back in May 2020 triggered by caffeine. Resolved using Sauvignon blanc to relax the waterworks which worked a treat π΅π«
Has anybody experienced retention While flying on a regular commercial flight? I flew recently and experienced this for 7hrs of the flight although it wasn’t acute and I could void by straining and getting a very weak stream.
No problems at all prior and resolved as soon as we landed. Guess I need to gather more data points but interesting to see if someone else has had similar experience and if so management strategy…..looking to carry a temporary ultra thin catheter in the toolbox for voiding if everything hits the fan on next flight.
ran it post consultant who said if anything altitude should make retention less likely. Certain drugs can trigger it but non relevant in my case.
cheers
