I'm now a dozen or more full bladder empty sessions in today and not a single drop in the drawers so I'm pretty upbeat at the moment, this is what I busted my a$$ on for the past several months to avoid. I go back to the doc in a little while to do a final bladder scan after a day of hydrating but I feel very optimistic that I'm good for day-to-day, and with the special procedure done during the prostatectomy I should be safe from stress incontinence as well. So I'm hopeful!

I don't miss the catheter one single bit. I didn't sleep more than an hour or two a night with that in.

congrats @survivor5280 !
how are the pain levels. hopefully it is not an issue anymore?

Sounds like you're doing great. I also was continent after surgery (maybe a drop or 2 for a couple weeks). Still continent 2 and a half years after surgery so you look to be in good shape .
