First PSA test after surgery
Thanks to every friends in this forum,
I like to report his first PSA test after surgery was 0.00x,something less 0.01,which is undetectable.

He is still ED and incontinent,but under good recovery,he need 1 pad daily for drips.

PSA test half year after surgery
I like to update his PSA test half year after surgery was <0.01,which is undetectable.

He is still ED(4 o'clock wise) but continent. His doctor believe he could get good recovery within 1-2year,because his nerve sparing was successful in both side.</p>

very good

great to hear of successes

I'M GLAD YOUR FRIEND IS DOING SO WELL. AT AGE 54 I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH PC. 5.4 PSA WHICH DOUBLED FROM 2.7 LESS THAN 4 MONTHS BEFORE. BIOPSY RESULTS - APPROX. 5 %. GLEASON 4 & 3 = 7. MY BIGGEST CONCERN WAS ED. I DISCUSSED WITH MY DRS AND WAS REFERRED TO A UROLOGIST WHO WAS PROACTIVE IN TREATING PC PATIENTS TO PREVENT ED. PRIOR TO EXTERNAL BEAM RADIATION TREATMENTS - 41 TOTAL - HE HAD ME START TAKING CIALIS - APPROX 10 - 15 MG PER WEEK. HE SAID BY KEEPING THE NERVES STIMULATED THAT IT WOULD MINIMIZE NERVE DAMAGE AND ED. DURING THE TREATMENT PERIOD, WE CONTINUED TO BE SEXUALLY ACTIVE - THE RADIATION MADE IT PAINFUL TO EJACULATE ( WEIRD - INCREDIBLE PLEASURE FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY A VERY STRONG BURNING SENSATION THROUGH OUT ENTIRE URINARY TRACT ). WE KEPT THE 'PUMP PRIMED' . ULTIMATELY THE BURNING DURING SEX WENT AWAY. 5.5 YEARS LATER, STILL NO ED - I STILL USE CIALIS 5 - 10 MG A WEEK JUST CUZ I LIKE FEELING 13 AGAIN- A MIRACLE DRUG  ( THEY AREN'T LYING ABOUT THE POSSIBILTY OF A 4 HOUR ERECTION ). CIALIS CERTAINLY MADE THE ENTIRE PC MUCH, MUCH BETTER. HAS YOUR FRIEND TRIED CIALIS ?

TO ALL - I'M VERY MUCH ENJOYING BEING PART OF THE CSN - JUST JOINED. GREAT TO BE ABLE TO SHARE. AS MEN, IT'S INTERESTING HOW WE APPROACH PC - A PROBLEM TO BE ADDRESSED AND SOLVED RATIONALLY, NOT EMOTIONALLY - PC IS DIFFERENT - NO SUSAN G KOMEN 3 DAY WALK KISSES AND SUPPORT

LIKE WE ALL DID, I CONSULTED A NUMBER OF DRS AND CHECKED OUT ALL THE TREATMENT OPTIONS. I FINALLY CHOOSE MY DR NOT SO MUCH ON THE BASIS OF HIS CONSIDERABLE EXPERTISE IN CANCER ( HE WAS CHIEF OF ONC. AT A MAJOR HOSPITAL ), BUT RATHER BECAUSE DURING THE PROSTATE EXAM HE TOLD ME A JOKE. I THOUGHT, HAY, THIS IS A GUY YOU CAN DEAL WITH. WE DON'T KNOW THE ULTIMATE OUTCOME, BUT HIS ATTITUDE CERTAINLY MADE THE PROCESS A LOT MORE BEARABLE. EVERY MORNING THE 'CHIEF' WAS MAKING HIS ROUNDS WHEN I WOULD SHOW UP FOR MY RADIATION. WE WOULD JOKE AND THAT SOMEHOW MADE IT A LOT BETTER. SOMETIMES IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS............

Congratulations on the continuous Zeros results.

I hope your friend gets better in the ED issue. May I suggest him to stop taking the pill during a period to allow the body to recuperate naturally? He may return to V at any time or may try other means of success more natural. Certain diets got the “spices”.

I celebrate the good news from this little corner of the Europe.
