Pee In Morse Code - My Enlarged Prostate & Me

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.

HoLAP Prostate Treatment Experience

My treatment for BPH was done using the GreenLight laser, but a newer technology is HoLAP (Holmium Laser Ablation of the Prostate). I see that a blogger has related his recent HoLAP experience today. The URL is http://www.restoringtally.com/blog/2009/11/results-my-prostate-surgery
