It is been a month today...
Since my prostrate was removed. Got the cancer diagnosis last October. Took a while to get a date with one of the most respected Ongology Uroligists in the world. Was lucky he was local. Robotic procedure went off flawlessly, had it on Friday back at my desk on Monday. Feeling great now. Total recovery is coming along better than expected.
Pathology showed the chance that it spread anywhere else at near zero. With family history, Mom, grandmother and aunt all passed from cancer, that was a great concern. |

Great to hear. I was diagnosed (at 58!) last Jul ('21) as a Gleason 6 (Stage 1, minor, some say not even cancer - but I wasn't taking ANY chances!)...
Dr discovered it during TURP surgery. That was a miserable 2 weeks for me...but once I healed...much better! I am surprised you had such an easy go with a complete removal. Glad to hear you are on the mend!! |

With removal, I have a bit of incontinence which is getting better every day with the Pelvic Floor excercises. The ED is treatable and getting better also. There are therapies for that along with a Cialis Rx that stimulates the nerves and blood flow. It is all good, no regrets.

That's good to hear, glad you're feeling well.
Had a 14 PSA number, found 3 cancer spots in the prostate, one was a 9-10 Gleason score, have 44 days radiation regiment, just have 4 more treatments to go, don't mind saying. it has knocked the shit out of me. Hoping for some strength to come back after it's over. |

best of luck to you.
I had a small amount of blood in my urine recently and just earlier this week the urologist put the camera up my schwanzer. Aging definitely sucks |
