After the doctors visit in Birmingham yesterday, I can still only lay around and do my walking.

I did get to loose the baggage yesterday, the pathology report came back that the cancer was worse than the biopsy showed, but is was still contained and had not spread. They did get it all with the surgery. I’m not supposed to drive until Monday, except for an emergency or an absolute have to.

After the baggage was removed, I ask the doctor what kind of underwear should I use, boxers or briefs? He said Depends!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Hope everyone has a good afternoon and or evening! πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘£β™₯️

Hi Tiras

I love your sense of humor.

Sorry to hear the pathology was worse than expected but thank God it was contained and successfully removed.

Glad you got the baggage removed also.

Your freedom day is very soon now. Hang in there friend.

Abundant blessings Tiras.

Thank you!

Yes, done the exercises before and doing them after. I already have 90% of control back in only 1 day after the catheter was removed. The doctor said 3 days at the earliest, I’m gonna beat that!😊β™₯️

Hi Tiras so pleased your op has been successful and you are now on the road to recovery. Don't be too much in a rush to get back to "normal", let nature take it's course.

Wishing you a long and happy life ahead. :)

Thank you!

I feel much better, but I do know doing to much, and or moving the wrong way can open up the incisions. So yes, I’ll take it one day at a time, still rest and let my body heal.😊β™₯️

Thank you!

That would be an option (actually a good one) after I get complete bladder control. Unfortunately, I do not have complete control back yet, have managed to get about 90% bladder control back, still have some leakage at times. Catheter has only been out for 1 day. So hopefully in another day or 2 I’ll have control back? 😊β™₯️
