Today is the 2 year anniversary of my surgery. Fully recovered on all fronts and living life large.

There is definitely reason to hope for quality of life after PCa. Catch it early, find a skilled medical team, make an informed decision, and look forward not back.

Thanks for sharing the great news Explorer - and here's to many, many more years of success!

As Susan stated, a great story for those considering RALP as a choice of treatment.

Thanks all. I am indeed fortunate.

Logos, I'm 53. No problems before RALP, but was a slower recovery than average. I tried the whole range of ED treatments with varying success. Basically they allowed function until the nerves were recovered. Just what my uro said would happen.

Explorer, Congratulations on your 2 year zero milestone. It is always a great relief to get a good result. I just called my URO's office and got my 4.5 year result of <.01.
