I am hoping it makes it better but I have read it'll get worse before it gets better. Just wondering what the good recovery looks like for this procedure.
I had a similar procedure done in November of 2017 and my urologist told me it could take a long time to see results. Immediately following, I lost what little control I had left and spent the next 2 1/2 years in diapers 24/7. Eventually, I was able to jettison diapers - first during the day, then at night - though I feel this was a combination of the surgery, meds, and spinal therapy. This lasted for maybe 18-ish months before I started needing diapers for bed again. So far, I am still generally diaper-free during waking hours when I have quick and easy access to a restroom, though I need protection on long road trips and if I take an afternoon nap.
