My first one did not work. Same thing. Too far up to grab. Switched sides for pump. Nope. Emergency surgery to remove it all. Gound doc who specializes in radiation csused problems. Had urethroplasty
Suprapubic catheter for 13 months. New AMS800 put in. Been 13 months and works great. Don't accept that it won't work. Many posts about AMS800 success stories. Search for them.

Thank you for your response. I guess it is encouraging that your's is the only story I've seen that is similar to mine,and that there are many more success stories.As of now my PSA has been rising again and my oncologist recommends that I hold off having the surgery to replace the faulty cuff until we determine if the cancer is reoccurring. So for now I'm in a holding pattern.
