hi i see your concern to this problem
we need to give alfa blockers to these kind of pateints coz due to urine retention more over its also have Use in BPH pateints as these relaxes the bladder and help in complete voiding
yes these medicnes reduces the BP to a great extant and some patients have postural hypertension
so please keep in mind that you should take these medicines only at bed time
in my opinon i would like to suggest
tablet of tamsulosin+dutasetride at bed time only
and for rest of the tumor resecton on surgical basis urtheroscopy and exploratory surgery
followed by chemo thearpy
hope to see the positive response by these medicines
