Hello all, Not much on me. Only been a few days on the med's. I can tell you I am taking Bactrim at night because it makes me very dizzy and can't take it during the day because I'm watching my grand kid's. You grand father's know what I mean. Back is doing ok pain is mostly gone. Still groin pain but I really think it is the bladder because it is in the center right above the base of the penis. I am going to the bathroom but it take time to get it started and slow small stream after. Feel like it take forever. I have 3 week of this then I am back home to see my doctor.............................................................................. Enough about me. The real reason is I watch a program call Embarrassing Bodies. I use to watch this on the internet but they have many shows on Netflix. The ones I found that I watch were on men's problems. The first one was a man of 50 that has prostate cancer been watching it for 3 year. He was in a lot of pain and he had to make a choice. To live or no sex life. Were the prostate was attach the cancer was into the sex nerves. I watched the whole surgery. They remove the prostate through the hole and they the nerves. I found it very interesting what can be done. After 4 week he in good shape. He had his energy back and was glad he had the surgery. He was not able to get a erection but the doctor said that was normal. It have to heal and the doctor said that he should be able to get some form of a erection within 6 month's to a year. After a year the doctor said that if nothing happens. There are many things to do from pills to implants. There was another man that had a incontinence after prostate removed. The doctor told him after some test that the reason was that when you have any type of prostate surgery the sphincter can be damage and it will repair itself sometimes. But his was to bad. The doctor told him what he needed was a artificial sphincter. The surgery was very enlightening to watch it being put in. It salved his problem. The last thing they talk about was retro ejaculation. They talked about what causes it and what can be done. I even found out something that I did not know. When I was younger my ejaculation amount was pretty good. As I got older the amount is less. Being a diabetic for the last 15 years it is less again. But I learn that you still have the same amount but the ejaculation goes both ways. The reason is that i'm a diabetic. It can affect the bladder neck where is does not close all the way. You will have the sperm going out the penis and going up to the bladder. When I have giving by Urologist a urine sample I have found white string of stuff in it. They showed it on the show and that is what it looked like. What I am trying to say men you need to get any information you can for your problem anywhere you can. This program showed me a lot. I think every man should watch them. You can find out a lot about your body. They have shows on men's problem not just the prostate ( Which is important ) But anything you want to learn about your body. Take care all and good health to you...Ken
