I am now 3 weeks post RP for my Gleason 9 grade 5 wior th EPE and live with depends day and night. My ability to voluntarily control my urination is extremely limited. I hope that with the passing weeks I wil gain sphincter control over my urination but so far, not much. I have not worn a pair of underwear in 3 weeks and am spending my days and nights with multiple "man pants" Less when I am sleeping but once I get up the involuntary drip starts and I try to go to the toilet to control things on my own but it is extremely frustrating. I just hope that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it is not a freight train coming back at me. Should I be more patient
