Thanks for the info. Did you sometimes have a good amount of leakage and others not bad? Were your lymph nodes removed? I had Gleason 9’s. Not sure if I have to have radiation to follow up as well until I go back on 9/14.

Yes! Some days not much at all, but as evening came there was leaking. They say your muscles just get tired by the end of the day. Other days lots of leaking. My Gleason scores were 8. They took 14 lymph node’s. 2 had small traces of cancer near the neck of my bladder. I’m actually at the Mayo today for my first PSA blood test. Also we are going to talk with a Radiation Oncologist. So we will see how today goes. Just stay positive. It definitely gets better every day. It may not seem like it, but it does.
