I'm also allergic to dust mites and just learned about a new drug, called Odactra that's supposed to offer a cure after 3 years. https://www.odactra.com/ ...
I too, had Gleason 9. Here is my summary: PSA 4.3 May, 2017 via annual physical. MRI - July, 2017, but the first Dr. forgot to call me with the results, so I called him 3 months later. Biopsy with...
Thank-you! I saw Dr. Po Lam yesterday, and he told me to stop doing the kegels entirely, in order to be fully dry in 2 weeks. I've never heard that recommendation before, but I'm going to do it, as...
Dr. Po Lam in Syracuse at Associated Medical Professionals (AMP) is by far, the best in Syracuse. The rest of the facility at AMP is not that great, but Po Lam has performed about 1,400 radical...
I seem to be making pretty good progress, and I have to attribute that to the type of surgery performed by my Urologist. It's known as: "Bladder Neck Preservation", along with "Nerve Sparing". I've...
Good to know. Thank-you!...
Thanks for your input. I was fine. My urine increased because I was slightly constipated, and I should be waiting longer between bathroom visits. I've since learned that a minor spurt or two when...

Thanks Saipan....
Thank-you. Here's another question: Does continence return by doing the kegels and walking exercises alone, or does it require you to kegel every time incontinence strikes?...
Thank-you. I've always peed more than most, even though I don't think my prostate was to blame. I guess, what I'm currently experiencing is probably related to that....
Thanks Saipan. Much appreciated....
If I don't limit fluid intake, I am essentially totally incontinent, dribbling 24/7. The only way to stop it is to lay down, but then I must get up to pee every 30 minutes or less. I don't have a...
Does anyone know of a site like this for our wives? My loving wife of 36 years has some worrisome days. She's not a fan of the facebook site, as she doesn't want the whole world to know that I'm...
Thanks for the input! I haven't been getting much walking in. I'm headed for the treadmill right now....
