Radical Prostatectomy (Surgery)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

It didnt affect my life, i still do the same things i have always done. 18 months after the operation i can pee ok and have no leakage issues. I can now get an erection.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

It is the best outcome, with no more worry of the cancer returning.
