Hi,
I am five years post radical prostatectomy. I help facilitate a prostate cancer support group and try to stay current on prostate cancer and related issues, including ED and incontinence. I consider myself fortunate as I regained continence within 8-10 weeks after surgery; sexual function at about 9 months post surgery. I look forward to learning and sharing with others the knowledge offered here.

Welcome to the clan. I'm pleased to hear that you have regained function. I think we need to have you teach a class on rehab!! Thanks for your work with support groups. We are in the process of creating a new Foundation to assist men deal with these issues. Paul has been a tremendous leader for us.
As Greg and Dave have said, join in the dialogue, the chat and continue to assist others. You are doing good things.
Where are you located? I'm in Indy and awaiting some warm weather and the hope of sun and spring.
Welcome.

Brian,
You said you regaine sexual function 9 months out of surgery. That's great! Did that happen on its own, or did you do anything to move things along?
