I know this is no longer relevant to you, but I'll post anyway for the benefit of others: it may just be a normal reaction to the anesthesia. I had difficulty urinating after breast surgery (which you'd think is completely unrelated) and was told that it was from the anesthesia and is quite normal. They explained that the whole body shuts down under general anesthesia and it can take a few days for it to get itself fully back up and running again. It should be difficult to pee for the first couple of days, but you shouldn't be completely unable to do so. If you're completely unable, call your surgeon ASAP.

It’s the most horrible thing needing to pee but can not get it out! I had my laparoscopy 4 weeks ago and when I woke up I already had a catheter in! I got discharged 3 days later but they also checked to see if I could urinate on my own which I could but with a lot of uncomfortable pushing. Last weekend I ended up in a&e because I couldn’t pass urine at all and they drained 400ml of urine from my bladder and currently at home still with a catheter in. I would try and get seen as soon as you can hun and catch the issue before it’s gets worse. I hope you start to feel better soon xx

Normal,After been put to sleep.Takes a week or more for things to crank up.

Yes I had the same issue.Your body just went through alot of trauma.It takes away while to start crank up.Kind of like a cold car.ChanaM is correct.

If after a little while longer you still can't pee... it might mean a trip to the ER. Your bladder being overly full can be dangerous. Maybe give your dr a call and see what they think. Also surgery in general in that area can lead to inflammation which can make peeing difficult
