Post TURBT

Hi . It is not unusual at this time to feel some discomfort. It can take up to 6 weeks for the wound to heal, and the first 2 weeks, you must not do anything strenuous to aggravate things. About this time, you may notice you are passing some tiny blood clots. This is normal as the wound heals and the scab starts to break away. Obviously any serious bleeding or excessive pain, contact your team. Best wishes.

Thanks Rily, your comments are always gratefully received.

Thank you for your support

I'm getting the much the same as you. Are you taking any pain meds?

Hi Coojee

I’ve been taking paracetamol. It seems to work as long as I take them regularly. I find it gets worse in the evening. Maybe because I’m sitting watching TV. 

Yes, mine is worse in the evening. I think it's because the body is more tired. I've been talking ibuprofen as I have a sensitivity to paracetamol. But will be switching to paracetamol next week during my chemo as suggested by my oncologist.

Good luck with your chemo 

Thank you Tym.
