Well, it's been a bit of an up and down time over the past few months. Pushka has alluded to things occasionally which may have made people wonder. MrLtL has been home from hospital for 5 days after a prostatectomy and removal of lymph glands about 10 days ago. So far things are going very well - he can attest to the value of Kegel exercises and apart from being a bit tender at the scar site is feeling well. Unlike JohnM he did not go the robotic pathway as it seemed that the chap here does not have a great deal of experience and the urologist he saw was very very experienced. It would appear that the tumour was confined but was comparatively large (given the size of the prostate!). Basically it was a rapid increase in PSA, followed by MRI, then biopsy then surgery. Fingers crossed for a zero result from the next PSA test in 5 weeks. Boy, they sure know how to charge!
I do wonder how people without access to ready funds manage.
