Hello All,
I ran across this board while doing a search regarding issues after having my prostate surgery. It looks like there is a lot of valuable and helpful information here as well as many people willing to share their experiences!
A little about me; I am a retired Air Traffic Controller and will be 68 in a couple of weeks. I had a Da Vinci Robotic radical prostatectomy on November 17th. I had a catheter in for 13 days (due to holiday schedule) and am now at home working with PT once a week to increase my pelvic floor strength and regain continence.
I am or have faced many of the issues expressed on this board and am trying VERY hard to not get down on myself for leakage or other related issues. I know it's a marathon, not a sprint but it's still frustrating in changing briefs/pads/etc. every so often.
Probably TMI, but I guess that's why we're all here!
Cheers,
Bill
