Hi Bob, I just had TULSA procedure 2 weeks ago so don't know how successful it has been but so far so good had catheter for 8 days. Had to have the whole prostate treated due to the size and location of tumors. Didn't want radiation and I recently had double hernia surgery which has caused ongoing mild hip,leg and groin pain so didn't want surgery. I found TULSA procedure on the internet. My care team in Seattle only offered surgery or radiation. I eventually found a Dr in Gilbert AZ who did TULSA. Currently still showing blood in urine and still have very slow flow but both were expected. Hopefully things improve over the next few weeks.
