Why not search on Google for others who have had a similar or identical op and see what they have to say? You might find someone with exactly the same problem you now have. If you do they might shine a light on what the problem (if there is one) is.
I did add to a list of comments but it obviously didn't save, as I can't bring up my post.

When I saw the GPs (2 ladies) they proclaimed not to be urologists, so therefore wouldn't have an understanding.
Problem is, if they were to refer me, for a second opinion, can you imagine how long I'd have to wait? My local hospital which did the cystoscopy and found the diverticulum referred me to UCLH saying they didn't do the op themselves because of it being 'specialist'.

Back in October, Pats. Six months. So no, not been discharged. Be interesting to see their reaction if I'm still in pain then!!
Gave in today, after helping out at table top sale, and took a tramadol with 2 paracetamols, and a two hour lie down.
