I'm 70 and reasonably fit (but not excessively so) at 5'11" and 187 lbs, and I had NS RALP (at a cancer center of excellence by an excellent doctor) 5 weeks ago. My recovery after surgery has been good. I never had any incontinence but I still wore a depends for 1 day, then switched to pads for about 4 days, and then I simply went back to normal underwear. I also have a large pad on my side of the bed under the sheet, just in case. Even though I never was incontinent after the catheter came out (except for a couple accidents as I figured out a few things), things do "feel a bit different". For example, with my prostate gone, I urinate like I'm 30 years younger. So when I step up to a urinal, I need to be ready when I "relax" as it starts to flow instantly. No pause like when my old prostate needed to relax before flow started. That's the kind of thing I mean about things "feeling a bit different". It took me a month to gain confidence that I wouldn't have an accident. I did do Kegels for about a month before surgery and resumed them after the catheter came out, so that may have helped my recovery. So at this point 5 weeks after surgery I'm generally "back to normal" for continence. Hopefully it'll stay that way, but who knows. Now to ED. Before surgery I needed Viagra for intercourse, so I wasn't starting from a pristine state. Right now I don't have normal sexual function, and I think that'll take longer to recover (if it does). I am taking Viagra nightly as part of penile rehab to help blood flow. I've only started trying to have intercourse within the last week or so. When I try to have intercourse, I do get a response but it's far from satisfactory. I think I've already seen improvement, but maybe it's my imagination. It's too early to know how much sexual function I'll ultimately recover. As far as everything else, I generally feel great; just like before surgery. My wife and I are hikers and spend a lot of time together, and other than sex, we can still enjoy ALL our other activities. Plus if the ED persists, there's a range of treatments I've yet to explore. So, bottom line for me: at this early time in this unfortunate journey, I have no regrets with my decision. But time will tell.
