Slowly but surely........

Folks, while I am anxiously awaiting my 2 year post da vinci PSA testing, I have decided to make a quick stopover to post something positive to encourage RP newbies.

So far I am  still at <.1 (undetectable). Zero incontinence! The ED front has been great. Slowly but surely I am getting there with no medicines. I started with very small improvements. Now, I am performing at about 98% pre da vinci  capacity!

What did I do? Nothing major on the incontinence side..just the intial Kegel exercises + regular walking and other exercises and things resolved by themselves. On the ED side, rather than the 'medicines for blood flow' with its attendant headaches and stuffy noses, I tried something else: A daily healthy dose of adult visuals (behind the wife's back of course). It's worked for me. I selected a few that are guranteed to give my 105 year old grand father an erection!

At this rate, I am sure to be fully there after the 2 yr mark.

So patience my friend, patience and try new things.

Next step is PSA on my 2nd anniversary in May! Will be back then with my 2 year report.

Cheers!

Ike, good going, but are you saying that **** was your cure for ED?

ike, no problem, was just trying to understand, can't believe the word por*n was bleeped out, lol

Ike:  Who did your surgery?  Also how long did it take to recover continence?  You say no incontinence but was recovery over a time period.  Glad everything went well.  If you tried to do active survellence at Hopkins, they would have actively discouraged you from doing so.  Age 41 is too much time for living to be concerned that some part of the prostate that can't be watched because getting a biopsy needle in the upper reaches of the gland is not possible.  Glad you did not play that "russian roulette" game and take your chances with long term watching.  Hope that PSA remains the big goose egg.  Viagara and a stuffy nose.  Yep, I have experienced that along with light blue vision.  I did not know that the color of the pill went into your eye sockets!!!   At least it is only 4 hours of blue tinted vision. 

Take Care,

Mike S.
