4 years go went through 2 months radiation with fatigue being the main side effect. I had started hormone therapy prior to radiation and continued hormones 3+ years until last Nov. I did use the injections for ed for several months with pretty good results( occasional bruising). Since then I have gone to vacuum pump with fairly good results. PSA is low and I feel good as of now.
Best as you continue this journey.

My experience was a good one I had control when the catheter was removed

hi,

noticed based on your profile .. you live close to me .. if there is anything I can help you with regarding local information or references ... don't hesitate to ask .. i did a lot of background work before my surgery and very happy with the outcome

its a scary time ... I remember it well. I forced myself to go through the options for treatment with a clear mind .. it makes the decision process more clear. do what is best for you based on facts ... if there is anything you need.... just ask

I have a similar experience as yours, it appears. I was 54 when diagnosed, but my cancer was very prevalent. My story might offer some insights for you.....if interested, reach out to me directly. You have a lot to absorb right now....ATTITUDE is vital..

Welcome aboard.

We are here together; don't forget that.

Lord, today I acknowledge that you are the King of kings and the Lord of Lords. I know that you are still in the business of healing your people and that you are not only willing but you are able to heal me of Cancer and to make me whole. So today, I ask for your healing power and I shall certainly not forget to give you all the praise and all the glory. Thank you for hearing this prayer in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
