We asked my hubby's doc about it. He said the prostate is full of little nerves, like a maze, so PNI doesn't mean it's headed on it's way out necessarily. He told us it's mentioned on a pathology...
There are meds to help some of the urinary symptoms, so check with his doc to see what is suggested for him. He might also limit his evening beverages to lessen his night-time urine production. I'm...
SL - It's obvious you are missing sex, but instead of thinking of inventing toys - maybe you could try reinventing whatever it was that made you fall in love with your husband. I mean no disrespect...
My hubby had his RRP 5 mo ago and still no return of erectile function. Vacuum works but such a hassle that it's difficult to comply with. None of the meds have produced any results - so it's hard to...
HI Letty, My husband has similar situation as yours. His RRP was in June. He still does not get a good signal of when to urinate. He says when he does feel something that it's more of a tingle than...
Hi Wicket, We had a small variety. We had Depends undergarments and Depends pads for men in the beginning. When my husband's cath was removed he had no control whatsoever - constant dripping. He felt...

Pilar, My son's friend went to Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Don't know what caused the area of his heart to misfire - but they located it and took care of it. Good luck to you and your...
My son's friend had an ablation for SVT in second grade. He laughes when he remembers it, because he thought the OR people were so silly in their goofy hats. (Maybe they were, but I bet his meds had...
We kept extra supplies in the car for outings. Toward the 2nd week he had a lot of leaking around the catheter. Extra pads (my guy likes the Serenity brand), some flushable wipes, large plastic jar...
Thank you for your replies and encouragement Glen, Jim, & Swim. Still dripping like crazy but he's working hard with the kegels. He has found that if he lays flat for a little while he is able to...
Hi~ My husband is 2 weeks out from RRP & had his catheter removed today. He has no control at this point ~ just a constant drip and an occassional spurt. We read with interest and have been...
