All men with K-pouches and an enlarged prostate gland. What symptoms do you have and what meds do you take? I take Flomax, Oxyputinin and Proscar.
Let me know what you take and do you pee alot at night and during the day as well. Thanks, John This message has been edited. Last edited by: Bodoni, |

Since in our case the rectum has been sewn up how do you go about a prostate exam. Is it just a MRI or CT scan to check? thought that may be a good bit of info when I have to cross that bridge.

You should get a PSA test once a year to check your prostate. Levels should be below 4.
John, Have those meds helped? I'm up at least twice a night to pee. Thanks! "What defines us is how we rise after falling." |
