I had my prostate removed at age 71. That was 11 years ago. The surgery went pretty well, however, you have to be prepared for the possibility of ED and incontinence postoperatively. I didn’t have any problem with incontinence, thank goodness, but ED has been a problem going forward. Unfortunately my cancer was metastatic which we found out by checking lymph nodes after surgery. Consequently, I will be fighting this disease for the rest of my life. I would think that you stand a pretty good chance of doing well, postoperatively and especially if it hasn’t metastasized.
