Hi Bud,
Wow you have been through and hell and back. The side effects or clean up activities after PC treatment were not really discussed much with me before hand. You? It is like a whole new world of problems I did not imagine but with Gleasons 7's and 8 not much choice. Surgery or Radiation. I had to look up the AUS800 to learn it is about sphincter repair. So you have had lots of surgeries? I have never had an anesthesia issues until this last surgery just a month ago for stricture removal. Nightmare like dreams for 3 or 4 days after. Wake up dreaming about getting a glass and my hand is up in the air like I am trying to reach one. What is that? I also went through the hyperbaric 02 treatments hoping it would help healing but not much if any effect. It did accelerate the development of cataracts and had them removed in March. I did not know that the 2x atmospheric pressure in the chamber could mess with your vision. You have a good attitude Bud and I am sure that helps you cope with issues most people will never know about. Thanks for sharing your experience. I am learning more. Wishing you the best as your journey with PC continues. BTW I am in Phoenix.
Bob
