I was diagnosed in May, 2007 and had a radical prostatectomy. I was very fortunate in that the cancer had not spread and I have been cancer free since July, 2007.

@tmclain, I'm glad you joined the Prostate group too. Was prostatectomy the only treatment you needed to have?

@dmadi61, cognitive impairment is so frustrating. While not the same cause, you may find some of the blogs posts in the MCI page helpful for dealing with memory issues. You can follow the blog here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/page/living-with-mild-cognitive-impairment-mci/

Here are a few articles to get you started:
- Revisiting Brain Exercises https://connect.mayoclinic.org/page/living-with-mild-cognitive-impairment-mci/newsfeed-post/revisiting-brain-exercises/
- Coping with Memory Loss in Social Situations https://connect.mayoclinic.org/page/living-with-mild-cognitive-impairment-mci/newsfeed-post/coping-with-memory-loss-in-social-situations/

Have you developed any tricks for dealing with memory issues?
