Recovery timeline following AUS
What was your recovery from the AUS procedure like? If you had previously had radiation treatment for prostate cancer, how did that affect the AUS procedure?
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Prostate Cancer Support Group.
Another question.... with the AUS, can you wear jeans?
I've been wearing trackpants since the prostatectomy because jeans don't fit with the fairly bulky pads.
My experience is that after any major surgery I just had to see what works best for me.
With the weight gain (actually weight shift from muscle to a fatter belly & ass) because of the Lupron I got some 'loose fit' jeans and or a size larger.
Don't we usually deal with whatever the surgery is first then adjust from there?
Whatever works for you is the best choice.
May it all go well, complete, and care-free for you.
Also, since the AUS is like a 'pacemaker' for my bladder, I have to be mindful of how close I am to a microwave oven or if an old airplane is flying low overhead. (not ! ) LMAO
