Before my TURBT and after I sometimes have to rush to the toilet before I wee myself. Just now I got up to get a drink and had an urge to wee. I just made the loo. Is this normal?
cheers Nigel
Hi Nigel,
I am sharing here my experience...
My doctor explained that post TURBT one may experience pain while passing urine. I experienced the same. There was lot of inflammation and also the bladder would not be able to hold the same amount of urine it used to before TURBT. The urge to pass will be there for a couple of days. I was given Silidosin 8 mg to improve retention of urine. However pain during peeing still continues due to inflammation and injury due to instruments inserted into your urethra and bladder.
Stay strong and it will all pass..
Cheers
