Hi everyone,
I had a TURBT with examination under anaesthetic and a meatal biopsy done 9 days ago. I was very lucky as in I barely had any pain (although on high painkillers already so they probably masked it well), I pee’d twice after the catheter was taken out (btw that was an experience and a half) and was allowed home. Had blood in pee for a few days then that went too. Today I’ve got a really bad pain in my bladder (no blood as yet), but it feels like I need to pass something big and it’s stuck/ I’m wondering if these are the scabs that are trying to pass, as I was warned at 10-15 days to look out for blood and scar tissue. I’m maybe naive, but I didn’t bank on being in so much pain for it when I’m still on all the high painkillers. Anyone else suffered the same at all? Wondering whether to persevere and they’ll pop out, or whether it’s not normal and could be an infection. Anything greatly appreciated. Drinking water by the gallons btw.
Hi LiRoss . It's not uncommon to have some lingering pain as the scab breaks away, especially if you have been overdoing things and aggravating the wound. plenty of water is the way to go to flush things out. There is usually a strange sensation when passing clots. There is always the possibility of infection, so it may be wise to drop a sample at your GP. I have my own dipsticks, not perfect but they give you an idea if anything wrong. As always, always best to call the medics if things continue or get worse. Best wishes.
Sorry to hear you are in so much pain 
Obviously I have not had mine done yet so cant help but hopefully you will get some advice on here to help you 
Does a hot water bottle help?
