Rising PSA, biopsy, possible surgery, sex etc. The journey continues...
I am wondering if anyone on here has had a similar experience of a rising PSA post-radical
prostatectomy
and if so, what did you do? Thanks again for all the support. In other news...lol.

Yet another surgery v. radiation study.
The objective of this project was to compare the impact of initial radical
prostatectomy
vs radiation therapy on survival outcomes in young men less than 60 years old with high grade prostate cancer.

Ready for sex again
Had a
prostatectomy

Introduction
I had a
Prostatectomy
two months later in Jan. '18. Radiation (40 treatments ) and Lupron shots followed due to a few cells found in one seminal vesicle. As of now, I only have to take a shot every 6 months for two years.

Six -years post prostatectomy
Hello everyone, my name is Jeffery Thomas, I am 67. I had a Davinci surgery in 2012. So far I am cancer free. I continue to have mild incontinence when I laugh, or overeat. I begin having severe depression about six-months post-surgery. The depressive episodes have gotten better, however, the depression

Sick of the meds
Prostatectomy
2012, 21 bags of chemo, lots of hormones, Firmagon and Lupron, Zytiga, now Xtandi. Bone metastasis, lymph node involvement, the whole enchilada. Have had several cryoablasion procedures which helped. Xtandi and Lupron are working for me now 7 years in.

Pelvic floor physical therapy
I had a
prostatectomy
in 2011 and salvage radiation in 2017. The urinary leaking has worsened over the last year. And I’m scheduled for pelvic floor therapy in 3 weeks. This is different from Kegel therapy. Just curious, what should I expect?

Introduction from PC newbie
At first, I was convinced I should go the
prostatectomy
route, but now, not so sure. I expected to live at least another 20 years (I'm 58) until I got this news but I'm hopeful that my treatment will let me die of something else.

Gleason score 9-10 prostate cancer subset to adjuvant vs early salvage may be diluted by the more common lower-risk subsets of

Sex and incontinence
It’s been a little more than two months since my radical
prostatectomy
so I tried to do some normal stuff. I had a somewhat successful attempt at sex. My worst nightmare was present due the experience but, as I wrote, there was some success. Just no standing ovation.

My Introduction - elevated psa, unconfirmed prostate cancer
Hi, I'm a 57 year old with unconfirmed prostate cancer. My psa has been elevated for 14 years and recently jumped from 6 to 14 in a 6 month time frame. Since it was over 10, I thought it was time for a biopsy. My DRE was negative so I wasn't too surprised when it came back as negative. From what
