You made a very good decision! At our age, (I'm 79) it's not a good idea to have any surgerical procedures unless it's a life threatening situation! Our bodies just don't recuperate that well anymore. I am incontinent and just live with it. They had a medication that worked for 9 years but now they don't give it out anymore! So I just cope with the pads and not venturing out a whole lot where there isn't a bathroom handy.
It's good that you are active! That's important to good health.
I wish you the best.
