hi all lemonlime here well i made my 6 month check up today and all things are a ok this time around .i did ask the docs pa why the rectal exam . she said they do it at the 6 month mark , because if anything got loose during the removal of the prostate , it would show up in the pelvic area by now . hope this is a good thing . she said 1 pad a day is good ,at the 6 month mark . i was using 4 - 5 at 3 months . i did start thearpy at the 3 month mark with a specialist in pelvic floor strenthining . this has helped tremendously . you wouldnt believe the different exercises there are , for this . if any 1 wants to know them let me know on here ,i never thought i would be this better in three nonths time what a help the thearapy is ty all have a nice weekend .. horayyyyy
