Radical Prostatectomy (Surgery)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

I walk a lot and have to wear a pad as I leak quite a lot while walking. I also don’t drink alcohol as much as I was told alcohol irritates the bladder which isn’t too good after losing my prostate

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

PSA has been undetectable ever since
