Things continue well, with only one minor problem. I can pee like a fire hose...empty 98% of a full bladder in 20 seconds. That is absolutely WONDERFUL!
The minor problem is that sometimes, when I realize that I need to pee...I REALLY need to pee RIGHT THEN. No accidents have happened yet, but I can envision a problem on, say, a road trip out in the middle of the boondocks.
They say that the bladder-emptying muscle gets very strong when you have BPH, in order to push the urine out. Since that power is no longer needed and the muscle probably will weaken, perhaps the flowrate will slowly diminish and the urgency problem will subside.
NOTE: THESE POSTINGS ABOUT MY GREENLIGHT TREATMENT ARE IN REVERSE ORDER. TO START AT THE BEGINNING, PLEASE CLICK ON 2005 IN THE LEFT COLUMN. BPH (Benign Prostate Hyperplasia, enlarged prostate gland, or 'prostrate' gland) is a vexing medical condition that affects most men in their 50s and beyond. For me, it started when I was about 47. It causes a reduction in urine flow and retention of urine in the bladder, which can lead to bladder infections, urinary tract infections and prostatitis.
