Yeah...going to have to go with IntheShop on this one... My continence was pretty good after about a month. One shield a day and only getting up once a night. But...I had two occasions with blood in the urine or pad. I freaked a little but knew it was on the normal side of normal. I asked the Uro about it and he said I might see drops out to 8-12 weeks! However, he did say only small (drops) amounts or he should be called. I think my first bout was when the stitches passed and the second was maybe two drops at six weeks... The thing is, a drop of blood against a white pad looks like someone spilled a can of red paint in your lap! Same goes for the toilet...a few drops looks like the Red Sea!
I was told to judge continence at a year! Seems like a long time, however, as everyone will tell you, it takes a long time to heal. Everyday is better than the day before...you’ll see. Hang in there!
