anyone else having after surgary problems

Post a new topicby sherit on Fri Sep 04, 2009 7:34 pm

my husband had the new robotic surgary. at first we thought it was all good but now they seem to think he has a urine leak after they did some repair on bladder after prostate was removed. urine is leaking into the drain tube that is still in after a week and half. just wondering if anyone else is going through this?

I hope you are improving by now. Just goes to show there is no easy way of treating prostate cancer. My doctor gave me the misimpression that bladder control was likely to return in 6- 8 weeks. After 3 months I was very discouraged with my progress. Just now- 6 months after surgery- am I almost dry. comparing notes with other men it seems that is closer to normal.
