Best of luck John. Recovering from prostate cancer surgery is pretty easy at your age. I had the surgery at 62. I was doing limited work within four days, and fully back working after 6 days. I couldn’t lift weights, but I could sit down at a computer and work on problems with a network or a system. Most of the pain/discomfort from the operation was gone after three days and Tylenol took care of whatever pain I had.

Some people have some issues that caused them discomfort for weeks after the surgery, But that is not the norm.
