another problem is with pain at the urethra opening. i had an episode this morning at 4am and it got so bad i has to call the nurse at 5 to give me a painkiller jab. i asked suporn this morning and his answer was erection of the urethra...anyone with similar symptoms post op?

Huh? 

I had urethra pain about 4 or 5 months post op.  It got really hard to pee.  It all happened over a few days and I had to see a specialist who booked me in for corrective surgery a day or so later.  It turned out my urethra had been positioned too far back.  So the corrective op had to re-position it.  Nothing special apparently.  Then I had to dilate the urethra opening for a week or so

Well there is a lot of swelling in that area. It's going to be months before it all goes away.

I'm 5 months post-OP and I too had urethral pain for the first 4 months. But I also had a meatal stenosis after 2 months which was corrected in a second surgery.
