Rob's Story

Hi, I was diagnosed with Prostate cancer, Gleason score 4 + 3 = 7 Grade group 3. I think its important to remember that this isn't just your problem as it effects your partner as well, so I made a point of discussing this subject as soon as i knew which treatment I was going to have. My wife was amazingly supportive, and all she was concerned about was that I would be free of cancer, We enjoyed a very fulfilling sex life before I had the Radical Prostatectomy so this was going to be a big deal for us, which meant we did a lot of talking and reading about how we could still enjoy a fulfilling sex life after I had my treatment. We also attended a male health clinic which told us about what was available and I was put on their program. It's important to mention that there is no quick fix so patience is important. I have tried, Tablets, Creams, Vacuum Pump and Self Injections and a combination of the Vacuum Pump + Self injections. We had fun with all methods with us both achieving climax, (you don't need an erection to achieve climax) but I only had a strong enough erection to achieve penetration when using the combination of Self Injections and Vacuum Pump. Because the 20mcg dose injections aren't effective I have been referred back to the male health clinic/injection clinic, to discuss other injections.
