This has been very difficult for me. I have an understanding partner, but I find needing to use a vacuum tube and rings for an erection awkward; I'm not confident it lasts long enough either. It's ... not great.
The biggest effect has been on my sex life. Nothing good to say about that, though it's only a year after the op and I understand there's still a chance some sexual function may return.

Well I'd rather be alive than dead, and this still seems like the best option. I'm grateful that the cancer was found early and not bitter about what I've lost - that's life, literally!
