don't know about the worst surgeon... had two different ones so hard to tell...maybe just the worst luck... the one I chose and who is looking after me calls me on Saturdays etc to keep in touch... the leak is maybe pin prick sized and loosing less than a 1/4 ounce in 24 hours... sure don't want to be opened up for that... so no point changing docs at this time.... just wondered if anyone else had been in this situation... have to leave the JP in until the lab tests show zero urine.... frustrating but "in for a penny...."

Hox..you still have the J tube in you? They need to find that leak and repair it if it has not healed on its own by now......or maybe another surgeon??

Sounds like you may have found the worst urologist/surgeon in the country Rick. I suggest you contact Jack (Moonerj) about getting someplace that knows what they are doing. He knows the top docs in Canada.

Your case has been one terrible thing after another.

I hope you are able to get this all fixed soon!!!
