Prostate Cancer

     The problem I’ve been having with incontinence has improved 1000%! While it is still a problem, it is much better now. I am now able to spend  time out, and at functions.  Next follow up with Urologist is in October. Again, not going really wanting to go into […]

     Had follow up with Urologist today. Result of blood work, PSA is zero. This is fantastic, it means the cancer is indeed gone.      We briefly discussed the incontinence problem. It is getting better. He asked how it is doing at night. At night I am doing […]

Figure it is time to provide an update.  Going in tomorrow for a blood draw – follow up PSA test. Have the results next week. Had to skip two camp meetings last week due to this problem with incontinence. My wife and I did visit another church Sunday. That did […]

I had a followup appointment with my GP today to bring him up to date on the surgery. He had nothing to add about the prostate surgery. Incontinence was not as bad as I first thought (make no mistake it is bad). The muscles seem to be working, not too […]

I had a follow up visit with the surgeon today, just a “see how your doing visit.” The urologist decided he wanted to change out the catheter today to minimize infection risks. The procedure was uncomfortable but not painful. We are scheduling yet another cystogram and followup visit for next […]

I was released from the hospital today. White blood count normal. Temp was down to normal. Have 10 days of antibiotics set up in pills. Cystogram is still on for tomorrow, with followup with doctor. If bladder is healed catheter will finally be coming out. Psalm 13:5-6
