Thanks so much for the encouragement and responses. I have got about 36 hrs until D Day.

Another 2 questions I have.

1)I keep on reading that size is descreased. I was a healthy 8.5 erect prior to the prostectomy. I am now almost miniscule. Will I be loosing size based on the pre prostectomy surgery or will I loose size based on what my penis is now.

2) Has anyone gained weight that they just can't seem to lose after the prostectomy. I workout about 2.5 to 3 hrs per day. I use to have a fairly good body, but that has all gone away, as well as gaining weight. My doc says my testerone is fine (I think he was trying to placate me) He also said that I would not be able to take testerone until I had 5 yrs clean.

Thanks.

"Rule-of-thumb" is to pull your penis straight out as far as possible ... that's about what you'll get from Implant.

Ask him for a copy of the results from your lastest blood test ...

Wow! ... old school thinking. I was back on Testim 30 days after my robotic surgery, with 3 following PSA tests all <.01

I still have a little pooch above my penis from the prostectomy. As I've been doing a lot more cardio, it seems to be going away. That is the key.
