Thanks to everyone for contributing to this topic. The information is very helpful.

I'm less than 6 weeks post-RP and still have a lot of incontinence (maybe getting a tad bit better, maybe). My goal was to be around as long as possible and to not have to deal with metastatic prostate cancer. So no regrets.

Odds are I will regain continence eventually, but this discussion gives me hope for the future. Thanks, guys!

@jeff1963 I’m sure that you will. Most likely if there were complications, the doctor would discuss them with you and you are experiencing normal incontinence. I was not in great shape when I had my procedure. I’ve since dropped about 70 pounds from exercise and diet. I know being in good shape helps with the recovery. I don’t remember wearing pads for more than 8 to 10 months? It might have been less. It seems like a lifetime ago. I was blessed to have a great doctor and he removed all of the cancer. They were able to spare almost 90% of my nerve sacks. With Viagra, I’m good to go.
