Phil's Story
I was proscribed medication to be taken every day and given a pump, this after 14 months is still the only way I can get an erection hard enough for sex. I don't know if it will improve.
I exercise every day and occasionally have a lymphatic massage once a week.
I exercise every day. I think that it helps.
Very little sexual activity, discomfort in my lower abdomen and groin, also I need another operation to repair a ruptured stomach muscle above my navel.
Not sure
I think that with my Gleason score I had very little choice, but I do wonder if the after effects might have been better had I tried other treatments.
