Hello from Ontario, Canada

Postby 2451cs » Sat Feb 22, 2014 9:33 am

Retrtopubic Radical Prostatectomy Aug 1999. Required no radiation or chemo. All PSA have been undetectable since.
Happily married 37 years.
Scheduled for a penile implant in April 2014. Not certain if it will be AMS or Coloplast.
I am here to get feedback from those who have had the surgery for any suggestions to prepare for pre and post surgery. Would really like to hear from any in Ontario, Canada.
I had contacted several Prostate Support groups in Ontario for anyone who had an implant but had no replies. One member suggested this site.
In 2012 I had a circumcision due to phimosis and surgery to install a male sling because of incontinence. If anyone has questions concerning either of these please contact me.

Welcome - there is a wealth of knowledge and information on here. My suggestion, have a good look round, ask questions and read up as much as you can. From experience the more knowledge you have the easier it is to ask the right questions.

I'm on the other side of the pond to you, but if it helps my blog will give you my experience over here in the UK.

Anything you want to know just ask.
