Congratulations. Sounds like you're doing great. Keep getting periodic PSA checks so you don't have any surprises in the future.
Like the low PSA value!
How are you doing with surgical side effects?

Joel,
My incontinence was never very bad. I used 1-2 pads a day for the first year or so, and then switched to shields. It took over 3 years before I stopped using those. I still have some leakage, like when I sneeze and other stress instances.
ED is only partially helped with generic sildenafil, and we have recently started with a VED. But we have adjusted well to the new normal. It has been over 4 1/2 years and there is some progress. There was bilateral nerve sparing during the surgery.
