I had the procedure in 2004. I’m alive and well today! That said, I would advise at least one second opinion from a non-surgeon. Once cut......! I’m 72 now, ED pretty much rules our physical sex life. I have recurring thoughts that I pulled the surgical trigger too quickly. I’m sure things have improved over the last 14 years but cancer won’t kill you overnight so do your research first.

I had prostate cancer and did seed implant with 30 days radiation in 2005. ED came within a couple of years. I used to do Caverject for ED and worked every time but was $70 a dose. Now do prostaglandin and for $5 dose it works fine. I am a candidate for colon removal and bladder removal due to radiation but guy who had that done still uses the prostaglandin, Wedgewood Pharmacy, NJ and it works for him. This is different meds. Injection in penis and works every time. No, it is like mosquito bite at most and 2-4 hours of guaranteed erection. Love that stuff. It is made by compounding pharmacy such as Wedgewood. Only once every 24 hours can be used. LOL
