Hello cdcfbw,

Sorry to hear about your stone and infection. It’s good that you have that behind you now. Sincere writing the original post at the top of this communication chain, asking for feedback on the surgery to place the markers and insert the SpaceOAR gel, I thought I would offer you some feedback on how my procedure went. It was actually a “piece of cake”! I had no pain or discomfort after waking up from the procedure. The first day, I had a very-very slight feeling of “fullness” from the gel, but that disappeared and really was hardly noticeable. So, I thought I would give you my perspective on that process. I worried a great deal in advance of the procedure, but it really was no big deal. So, hang in there! Your healing process has started and will accelerate once you have the markers and the gel. Take care….

I had the stent removed and the surgery for the gold markers. Also had the Spaceoar inserted at the same time while I was sedated. Everything went well and the only thing I experienced was a little soreness. The next step is to do the consultation and simulation near the end of the month. Many thanks for all your support and encouragement.
