Thanks for asking Surftohealth
I really hope you and as many out there as possible are doing OK
For me the glass is half full. I just had my second PSA since RARP in January and it is very low. that is the most important thing.

I see an experienced surgeon next week to see about possible hernia repair, Gallbladder removal and cyst on my abdominal wall I have no idea if I will have any surgery or a combination surgery

meanwhile, incontinence is improving but very slowly. I am a very slow learner. I have been going on walks every day usually between 2 and 8 miles every day total. I am not ready to try the exercise bike again especially sinoe I have been having some on again off again perineum pain. . I do fine with this ( a 3 mile early, perhaps a midday 3-4 mile and then a one or two mile near dinner time minor leakage minor pain near hernial area.

However, when I babysit after about just an hour or two I am leaking considerably and sometimes tender. what I am learning is that all the sudden movement, twisting, picking up things etc my pelvic floor muscles are not used to this quick activation and de-activation I cannot control what these one, two , three and four year olds will do. I love being around them and will not stop but it is an unpredictable environment

How are you doing? How long post RARP?.
