Tips and advice for any sexual side effects of treatment
We have been lucky to have had a good sex life pre op and fortunately had cancer late on so we are not too worried about the lack of action from “little Dave”
How this treatment impacted my life the most
The op went well and I was continent a lot sooner than I thought so it didn’t really impact on my life for more that a few uncomfortable weeks and then pads for a month.
If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?
Yes
Why did I give this answer?
I feel that not having a prostate now, definitely rules out the chances of having prostate cancer in the future. As the cancer was contained within the prostate, when it was removed, so was my cancer. I am a “half full “ chap and am pretty sure that this is the end of my cancer journey.
