PVP -You MUST take it easy for 3 weeks

I had a TURP 3 years ago and a PVP 19 days ago.

I learned the hard way that even if there is no blood or pain at the end of
the first week, don't lift heavy things, run, sit for long periods or have
sex.

I broke the rules after the first week and now have blood in the urine. It
is getting better, but very slowly. I'll be out of action for 5-6 weeks
rather than for just 3, because I rushed thing.
