@eshan Yeah, that's a good description of that book; pre-op guide for various treatment options. I'm not saying the book swayed me to surgery, I was already thinking in those terms. When my Decipher score showed up at .61 and the radiation oncologist said he recommended six months of hormone therapy, I was like, surgery here I come. Did not want to start with hormone therapy unless I need it later.
Yeah, water drinking...going have to balance what my body says for sure.
I'm now four weeks from surgery. ...

Hi, this is my sixth week after the surgery. My leaking is very bad when I stand up or when I am walking. More the water I drink the leaking gets worse. Ms. Vanita insists that one should drink more water which I did for few days and I leaked a lot. I changed six pads in 24 hours period. The worst part was I used to get up during the night every two hours for peeing.
How is your leaking? How many pads are you using?
Is it getting better? Mine is almost same after six weeks.
Just getting frustrated. I am afraid to go to public events.
Take care and hope you get better.
Thanks
