How do you feel after surgery heals.?

Question for the surgery guys. How did or do you feel 2-3 months past RALP.Aside from feeling fine, do you feel like everything is "the same down there" ?

The more I think about it, I don't. It's hard to describe, but I feel vaguely different in my urinary area. I'm realizing this just now, over the last couple of days, now that I a 10 weeks out, and feel I should be fully healed.

Also, and this is not a bad thing, except it doesn't make much sense - whereas I used to be semi constipated, having hard bowel movements and not always regular, since the surgery I have a large bowel movement pretty much every morning, and it is no longer hard. Like when I was in my 20s. I've been off Colace for 2 months

I don't think I can fully explain this feeling, I don't know how, I just know everything feels different down there, not bad, but not YHE same, and it's making me nervous .
thinking about it.

So I'm curious to know if others have somewhat different sensations in the area, both front and back a few months out. I would think, after 10 weeks, I'm pretty much healed by now, inside.

It has been about 16 months since my robotic surgery. I feel about the same after as before surgery. I think the only difference is that sometimes I have a sense or urge to urinate even though my bladder might be empty.

Lapilot, do you remember how you felt after a few months?

I wish I could describe how I feel, but I cant. Just different and weird. Some strain above pubic bone at end of a pee, a feeling like maybe there is always some pee collecting where the Prostate used to be, or in my johnson, and a feeling like I just had a BM. ALL THE TIME.BEST I CAN DO

I think I've been feeling this all along, but maybe my awareness is heightened after I had an episode of peeing in my sleep last night out if nowhere (mentioned in another thread), which is making me (more ) nervous.

Ugh.

Hello Prat, 3 months post surgery and I still feel different. It is obvious I need to learn this new configuration of my body. The sensation of needing to urinate is different. Sometimes I feel a frequent need to urinate and at other times, I do not.

Best Regards,
Pat

I had them put me to sleep for my biopsy!!! Lol


Just for the bowel thing, I think i was probably a full 3 months before my bowels were back to getting "what it was" before surgery. It took so long I began to worry.

This anesthesia does a buck's worth to the bowels. And you had alot more of it than I did.

Funny Dewayne, what I feel, also feels,like what radiation might feel like. And I didn't have radiation.

NE-skier, what do you mean pain of the biopsy?

What I feel during a BM is some tenderness in the lower abdomen, and on urinating, just a sensation that wasn't yhere beef ore, at the end of the stream. I've heard from others on another forum that have had similar experiences that eventually disappeared, they described it better than I was able to, but I recognized it.

Hopefully I just need more time,
It sucks what a rollercoaster this is, but I know I shouldn't complain.
Just one day I'm great the next day not so.

When I had my biopsy each of the 12 shots caused a really sharp pain.
The uro said he only saw that a few times and each time it turned out to be a high grade PC but there is no basis for concern until the results are in... I'm a G9.
