I understand and agree. I was Gleason 7: 4+3 intermediate aggressive. Caught it very early, no spread, so RALP was performed 5 months ago. Now I’m deep in the throws of pelvic floor PT hoping to gain some semblance of control again.

Hopefully your surgeon has performed (unlike mine) more than 1000 RALPs - the incontinence outcomes improve greatly when their experience is that high.

Best of luck to you. DM me at gmail if you need/want to talk about your upcoming RALP.


I will do that. I am in a similar diagnosis.

I know someone who had the surgery 13 years ago and it went very well. But 5 months on for you, gives me the uneasies.

My dad had it 14 years ago. It’s been in remission and to my knowledge there’s no accidents and I don’t think he had many issues from the start.
