@gerald01 HI Gerald, I should also tell you that my doc saved the nerve bundle that are for stimulating an orgasm. He was also very careful so that I don't have any inconvenience, and never had to this day had to use pads or diapers.Hopefully your doc is as experienced as my doc was. He was one of top docs for prostatectomy. He has done over 11 thousand of them. Just do your homework before you go with your doc. Make sure he has the experience you need. That's how I found Dr. Catalona. He and Dr. Walsh for John's Hopkins are the doctors that came up with the PSA blood test.
