I apoligise for the diction its terrible, I just havent slept and its 2:30 am.
Just a little frayed around the edges. But just to emphasise is it normal to have the sensation that you need to urinate all the time, after this type of operation. I do mean all the time even after just going, it is very uncomforatable and i just cant get any sleep any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Tony,
Let your urologist know that you have this constant urge to go to the bathroom. It sounds like a urinary tract infection. Your doctor may want to put you on something in addition to what you are already taking. You don't want this infection reaching your kidney so act quickly. As far as the blood, I would think this is normal but I would mention it anyway. You might be having bladder spasms and there is Ditropan for that. Let the doctor know what is going on. This hour of the morning is there an advice nurse that is connected to your health insurance that you can call?
