Hi

All things considered, you've had a pretty invasive and major operation, and one that will probably keep giving you jip for a good few more weeks. If you're worried I'd touch base with your gp, but yeah, 4 weeks ain't nothing when healing from such an operation. My wife was getting weird discomfort on/off for weeks after her breast surgery, it turned out to be nothing other than some scar tissue and an oil cyst from the radiotherapy.

It was done by a robot under control via the surgeon, can’t say I’ve had much pain, more discomfort, especially as had the penis catheter removed on day 1 after my op, and had the super pubic Catheter in for a week, which goes in via my stomach to the bladder, after 3 days I got bladder spasms (a bit of discomfort when opening the drain valve) as it had dried up, and my normal urinary track was working hence the spasms ( urology nurse told me when I got it removed that it was bladder spasms) a part from that fairly feeling fit, apart from trapped wind, but taking laxatives . But will heed your comments. 

Hi from what you say happened after playing the bagpipes maybe its a bit too early as Prof said you've had a major operation so now you've had a few niggles pains here and there I would wait until you are fully healed ,I would think your insides need to heal as well as the outside ,I would give it another few weeks .

Yes your right, I feel alright but really it’s going to take time, spoke with another Army Veteran, who’s had it done, all though he’s not a piper, works out alot (must be young) lol, he said the same, don’t run before you can walk, it’s taken him 4 months before he’s gone back to the gym, and taking it very slowly. Regards to your good lady. Murray
