I'm checking in since posting my question in early October about the success of male slings. I appreciate the abstract on the study by Cleveland Clinic on subjective success rates. Read some other...
Thanks to John, Terry and Jazzman for your replies. They are very helpful. Reminderman...
I am now almost 11 months past my robotic radical prostetechnomy. My leakage is now down to an average of 2.3 ounces per 14 hour day, which usually means 2 or 3 pads per day. I'm womdering about a...
Hey Guys, Thanks for all the advice you have given. I have gotten the message that I shouldn't be thinking about an AUS at 6 months time. Makes me wonder about my new doctor's advice that we schedule...
Thanks to knotreel, Worried Guy, and tvwohio. I appreciate all your comments. I'm going to try specific PT for incontinence starting next week and see how things go. But, I will have to make a...
Dear knotreel, Thank you for your reply about AUS. It is very helpful to me since your leakage is very similar to mine in that the only time I can urinate is after sitting or being in bed at night. I...
[color=black> I would appreciate some comments on the timing of having an artificial sphincter implemented. I had a robotic radical prostatectomy 4.5 months ago. Regardless of doing 90 to 135 Kegals...

I recall that someone mentioned the AFEX system for managing incontinence but didn't give any expereince or evaluation. Has anyone tried this system? If so, was it with your doctor's approval. I am...
I/m doing pretty good at night in that my pad is dry until I try to make it to the bathroom to void. I lose a small to moderate amount getting there. Continue dripping during the day whether I'm...
Im going to go with the magnesium based on the comments of natural44 and j53. Also going to look up the internet sites regarding pressure points to try. I'm 3 weeks today since catheter removal after...
Again, thanks to all for the replies. The last two from Bandersnatch and Arch related specifically to my problem and made me feel a lot better. Thanks Reminderman...
Thanks to all that responded to my conern. I didn't hear anyone, however, say that they had experienced the "dripping faucet" type of incontinence. I use 3 or 4 pads during the night and 6 or 7 pads...
/community/emoticons/mad.gif Three weeks ago I had a robotic laproscopic prostatectomy and 12 days ago had my catheter removed. Since the removal of the catheter Iv'e had total incontinence which is...
