Hi I'm joining the group after being in the Bladder Cancer forum for the last 9 years, I'm now clear for the last 4 years.... phew. However recently there have been some irregularities with my Prostate so I've joined this group, with a view to learning from others who are on this journey.

  • Hi Billo, and welcom, can I ask what the irregularities they have found are.

    All the best Ulls 

  • Welcome to the forum Billo I hope you get the answers your looking for. Agree with Ulls that posting irregularities may help people respond to what your looking for

    Cheers

  • Hi Ulls & Donchadh, thanks for your welcome. I had my last Cystoscopy in February 2022, which was all  clear the Consultant prescribed Tramsulosin 400 mg, Solifenacin 5mg and Finasteride 5mg. This following a urine flow test, and he noticed some enlargement of the prostrate after the Cystoscopy. I had a telephone update with him June 2022  he was asking how the urine flow was and about leakage, I said there had been a big improvement in both, so we agreed he would call me in for further tests and a face to face in November 2022.                                                                        So as previously advised I don't have any questions  at the moment but may find it useful in the future.

  • Hi Billo, I'm on Tramsulosin and Finasteride for urine flow, the lack of flow is what sent me to the GP in the first place, much better now.

  • That's good you got the all clear and the medication is hopefully doing its job. Fortunately I don't have problems with urine flow and leakage. Wake up most nights needing to go but that's about it.
