Radical Prostatectomy (Surgery)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

Some problems with urine incontinence, which 5 years on seems to be getting worse. It's still preferable to having an ongoing prostate problem which could cause an early and probably painful episode before death

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

Not sure

Why did I give this answer?

I think that other treatments would probably have the same side effects
