I ran a computer consulting business. I stayed with it for five years after I was diagnosed. When I hit 67 I just decided I had had enough and turned my business over to another company that I knew was competent. When somebody has their network go down or server problems it can be pretty stressful, but that never bothered me it was always a challenge.

Four days after surgery, I was out at a few clients offices. Only needed Acetaminophen to ease the discomfort of the surgery. The next day was a Friday And I took it easy, but after the weekend I went back to my normal schedule working almost an all day. The catheter was never really a problem, and none of my clients had any idea I had surgery. I could go into their private bathroom and empty my catheter bag Which was attached to my leg?

Since you are 58 you will probably recover quite quickly. I know a friend of ours was an OB/GYN and was consulting on surgeries 4 days after his Prostatectomy. He was in his early 70s at the time. Recovery is all over the place time wise, But it seems that younger you are the quicker it happens,

Hey Doc, know the feeling; ran a dental practice but luckily had a partner to pick up the slack while I recovered from RARP.
I NEVER stopped thinking about the cancer coming back (Gleason 4+3 unfavorable with PNI) but not in an obsessive way which interfered with my life or my enjoyment of it. You’re just hyper aware that you’re one blood test away from the next shitstorm.
I finally came to grips with it by embracing the idea that it was probably going to come back and I immersed myself on what would have to be done when that actually happened.
When BCR occurred I just said “OK, let’s go” and that was it. Having BRCA mutation does put you at a higher risk for recurrence but Jeff Marchi @jeffmarc is the man to talk to when it comes to this.
His experience is vast, his knowledge unsurpassed as he has the BRCA mutation himself. Best,
