Saw doc today. He says bulbar urethral stricture, approx 1cm long. Recommends end-to-end Urethroplasty. Says it was in probably the best place to have it, high up in the bulbar region. Says he can do the procedure in 2 hours and it is his favorite procedure to perform. Says he would have me in a regular catheter for 2 weeks.
Unfortunately, he was not available for surgery until 21 June!!! Fortunately, the scheduling nurse had a recent cancellation she had not filled and pushed me to the front of the wait list. So, I am currently scheduled for 23 May.
I’m excited to get this over. Hurry up and wait.
