Prostatectomy

Lawr

I am considering a prostatectomy as a preferred method of dealing with cancer in my prostate. It is my understanding that the most important thing to know is who is doing the surgery and do they have a good batting average. Has anyone here had a prostatectomy? And who did your surgery? Were you happy with the results? Were the nerves that allow you to have an erection preserved? Finally, has anyone had any experience of <modsnip>? All of the testimony on the US Cancer Forum seems to suggest that those who proactively sought out the best surgeon were happiest with the results.

Any feedback welcomed.

Hi OP,

I'm afraid that we are not allowed to give any medical advice here on boards. I'll leave the thread open for now, but would ask that any replies do not offer any advice whatsoever, or mention specific doctors or clinics.
Please keep it to sharing your experiences and a general discussion.

Thanks,
Sauve
