Urethral Cancer

Hi Everyone,

Has anybody else ever had urethral cancer? I had been going to my doctor for about two years complaining of blood in my urine and pain. He said it was my prostate and treated it as such. The symptoms got worse and after many months of medications he sent me to a urologist. The urologist was not happy when he found a mass in my urethra. To make a long story short, I am now sitting at home recovering from the surgery after they removed the cancer. They removed half of my urethra and made a hypospadia. The pain is under control and getting better. Is anyone else going through this?
