Good article and good job Paul...

The Uro who performed my surgery stated I had a fair bit of cancer in the biopsy (30-65%, 5 of 8 cores taken). He said that and the probable scar tissue from repeated bouts of prostatitis may make it difficult to even save the nerves...but there are therapies/meds to get around that. As it turned out, it was nerve sparing. My GP (who is 75 and looks like 55) told me in his experience, I probably wouldn't be able to get an erection without caverject (or other injection) and oral drugs likely wouldn't work. At 1 year post-op, I was told what I "had" was what is was going to be...no getting better. My ED Uro disagreed and so did I.

Oral drugs didn't work until after I started trimix under another Uro that specialized in ED (my surgeon referred me to him at 9 months post-op). I wish I would have started a regular regimen of the orals and started trimix earlier.

However, I'm now good to go 100% of the time with about 5 mG of Levitra and have had some no Levitra successes...2 1/2 years post-op now.

The role of ED and incontinence (and its impact) was not, IMO, made clear enough before surgery.

A casual friend of mine had prostate surgery about six month agos. Would I come across as imposing if I asked him how is erections are coming along ? If he is having problems, I would like to refer him to FT.
