Re: Urologist Flow Study

Hi Ross, I am sure that the fact I have a constricted urethra and now an enlarged prostate is causing my pauresis. I read a bit more about flowmaxtra and there seems to be some nasty side affects. I will see how I go and if there side affects I will just come off it and try something else. I will al...

Hi Ross, I had the test done and it seemed to indicate that I am voiding my bladder o.k. I had 400ml pre void and 28ml post void residual.
