I had my prostatectomy in May 2020, so it is now 4 years. I did have issues at the time, but eventually I came to terms with my condition (non nerve sparing and quite a time to get good bladder control). In July 2024 I suffered my first Covid infection, it affected me fairly badly (flu like symptoms, fever for 3 days, etc) but like most folk I got over it. However, the coughing was very bad and deep and this affected my bladder control, it knocked me back to ground zero and I had to go back to wearing pads. Now, 3 months later, I am still having difficulty in getting back to where I was just before the covid infection, although I am now wearing standard underwear, I leak quite a lot. I don’t know if anyone else out there has had a similar reaction to mine, I sure given a few more months, I can get back to reasonable bladder control, but it is frustrating. I don’t have a long covid group in my region - I’m not even sure it would be a long covid condition, but it would be nice to have some level of support at the moment. Like quite a lot of people I haven’t been to see my doctor and as my support nurse signed me off, I don’t have that avenue open.
