Looking for men who recently had a laparoscopic radical prostatectomy
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: Sep 1, 2023 | Replies (54)Comment receiving replies
I had my prostate removed with a DaVinci robot in February of this year. The pathology report said they got everything, all the extraneous things they removed had no cancer and the prostate margins were clear, so I have had no follow up treatment of radiation or drugs so far. My cancer was Stage Two. My Gleason was 4+3=7 and my PSA was above 4 once but had been rising steadily for years. My first follow up PSA was .014.

Mine was done on Aug. 3rd. Almost a mirror of your tom. I feel the Surgeon certainly saved my life. I am taking a bottle of wine tomorrow to him. He gave me some 25mg. Minapine pills. I take 1 after breakfast and noticed that by 2 everyday, I pee incessantly and it comes on quick. He just told me I could take another at 5 so 2 total in a day. I do the dinky exercises all day long. I have a follow up blood work in 3 months and if PSA is still at 0 no action needed but if it bumps up any a PMSA Pet Scan will reveal if any is inside where the prostate was or any spots outside ot where it was. If inside, Lupron, if outside targeted Beam Radiation but he thinks I will be fine.
