I have read many complaints about the after effects of having your prostrate removed yet my urologist says that I will get rid of all cancer cells(which are multiple).If I get radiation,I will always be worried that it has not gotten all cancer,he says. He has referred me to Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto which is a hospital specializing in cancer.(Top of the line and state of all cancer the art.)I am concerned about incontinence afterwards.Robotic arms or laparoscopic surgery are my options for surgery but I have not yet been for my consult have a consult for low dose radiation coming up.I am inclined to consider surgery.Is it a painful surgery .How many of you have had a positive outcome with surgery?
