I'm thinking of getting PAE but hesitant. My doctor says my prostrate is 215 cc and that is too large for him to do TURP so he recommended I go for PAE. I went for a second opinion and this doctor says he's done many this size, He is in his late 60s, 70s and has more experience than the younger doctors. If PAE doesn't work I'll go to him for the TURP. I hope I'm making the right decision. Does anyone have an opinion?
Wow. Mine was "only" 105 cc. (Should be 25 to 30). Definitely give PAE a chance before anything else. You're tooo big for Rezum. And prostate function not diminished which is good. It got me off Flomax for 2 years. But I started taking 1 a day here recently. I considered it putting the prostate on a diet. She is the first doctor to that I have heard say this. I had discomfort for a week. Not pain. Itchy penis. Weird.
