I would like to hear the outcome of any guys who have actually experienced robotic prostatectomy? Prostrate Cancer removal. No hype from hospital WebPages, I WANT THE TRUTH! How Old? Gleason Score? Recovery? Incontinence? **Erectile Dysfunction-how long and did you recover? Did you use anything for E.D. and did it work? Would you do this type surgery again? Thank you fellows, all info appreciated.

YUP! Been there and done that. Bladder too. 74
Physical recovery, 2-3 months, better at 5-6
Mental, 3 years depression.
No incontinence. Stoma and pouch.
No worry about ED. Divorced before recovery. Alone now.
Gleason score? No knowledge of that.
Meds won't work. Implant or pump, (works), are choices.
It doesn't quit, desire. Check with your doc. Good Luck and God Bless.
Again? Hmmm, knowing what I knew after surgery?. Nope!
Don't take me seriously. It's every ones choice to make.
