If all goes according to plan, I'll be going in bright and early this Thursday for a TURP procedure. It's not as roto-rooterish as I thought, just opening up the strangle-hold the prostate has on the urethra. There are two techniques. Both introduce a tube. One then passes a laser up it to do some judicious burning of tissue. The other technique is to send Edward Scissorhands up there to do some hedge trimming.
I don't know which will be used. But I'm looking forward to peeing blood for a while.
I also don't know if this is a catch-and-release aaffair or whether I'll be spending a day or two in the hospital.
Whichever, I'll meet you on the other side.
