I would also like to share my experience with Rezum precedure done at BNH hospital. I was in and out of the hospital within exactly 4 hours.
During the procedure (Cystoscopie plus Rezum) I was not awake and catheter was in place when wakening up. I almost immediately experienced
some discomfort because of the catheter whenever moving.
The good thing is really that the treatment is outpatient and I could return home and was able to walk short distances. It is highly recommended to
buy a pack of adult diapers and wear them because of blood not only in the urine bag but dripping out of the urethra as well. A slight burning pain is to be expected from time to time.
Starting on the third day i experienced quite some pain when sitting on chairs or hard surfaces longer than 20 minutes. Sitting on my sofa or armchair was
however possible without issue.
After 1 week I was given the option to remove the catheter. However, at that time I felt some pain and decided to wait another week, even as mentioned the catheter was very inconvenient and sometimes painful. Today the catheter was removed (close to 2 weeks after Rezum), during removal i had a strong burning pain lasting 2 or 3 seconds. I was told to wait in the hospital until after 2 times of urination to see if there are any problems with that. Urination was ok, but not particularly strong with lots of blood coming out. Some hours later the bleeding seems to be less. Frequency and urgency of urination is annoying so far.
Next appointment will be in 2 weeks and I will keep you updated. All expenses were paid by my insurance passportcard (luckily i have in and outpatient coverage which is very expensive but since some time already I am glad to have it because of several issues and the Rezum coverage was confirmed within less than 24 hours).
