My Holap was different from some.
Before Holap - I have an enlarged bladder and as a result I was holding a significant amount of urine in my bladder after urinating. It was able to be measured at the Dr. Office. Once I held 900cc, the next visit, a week before the surgery, I had 1200cc in my bladder after urinating. As a result, the Doc had a catheter in me for from then till the surgery – 5 days. Because of this problem, the doctor installed a catheter through my stomach wall into my bladder during the HoLap.
After HolapIt - It’s been a week since the HoLap and the catheter was been removed from my penis yestreday. My urinating regime is the following: when I feel and urge to urinate I do so through my penis and measure the output. I then empty my bladder using the catheter in my stomach wall and see how much I retained after urinating through my penis.
My problem is I am about 24 hours removed from having my penis catheter removed and I am urinating very little through my penis about 100-200 cc’s and passing about 700 cc’s through my bladder catheter.
My basic question is, did any of you having a Holap have to “retrain” yourselves to urinate properly??
