Yep, I'm 5 years into this adventure.

I'm here for 2 more days.
Then it's off to get sliced & diced again and come out with an AUS that I can't use for 6 weeks.

I was 2 years out from RARP last January. PSA has been undetectable as of May 2nd

Hoping for many more!

Best wishes to all!

I have a little over two years in, not greedy, but I sure do wish for more. Best to all.

You are hard core, stocky, well built- beat me by 17 years. Good job

Didn’t know that, Peter…6weeks to heal before you can use it? I just assumed you were good to go after the procedure.
Hang in there, mate, better - and drier - days ahead…

Wow, I just passed one year in March. My (hopefully) final treatment (pelvic floor PT) ends this week. Next PSA test isn't until September so I can enjoy the summer with low anxiety (hopefully).
