Hi Joseph6, my experience so far after a year has been very positive no problems with any leaks and with medication no ed my main problem is with cystitis and this has been on going and chronic, but I think it's to do with the Turp I had to have because I had a week stream and unfortunately the first operation was not totally successful I had to have another one. I was lucky enough to be accepted at the Royal Surrey with prof. Langley, the hospital was over 2. 1/2 hours drive but I feel it was worth going outside my local area to attend the centre of excellence. Good luck with your decision, let me know if I can help further.
