Prostate cancer unable to pass urine

Hi, my husband has advanced prostate cancer and he is unable to pass urine as his prostate is enlarged and the cancer is pressing his urine tube.

He recently had a TURP operation, but right after the Operation, the doctors checked if he was able to pass urine, but he is not. The tubes are all back in for two weeks to see if it helps. But prior to his operation, he was unable to pass urine at all without a catheter. Did anyone in this forum go through this? Thanks

  • Hi Goodluck,

    I'm sorry to read about your husband and the difficulties he's having. My reply here will boost your post so more people will see it and if anyone has similar experience then hopefully they'll be along here soon.

    Do make sure you discuss any concerns with your husband's doctor, and I hope this issue eases soon for him.

    Wishing you all the best,
