hello friends
as some of you know my dad had a radical prostectomy 7 weeks ago via robotic surgery. Dad has been in and out of hospital ever since, he is in tremendous pain and has been passing his stitches through his penis when he wee's. He has no control over his bladder and it instantly empty' when dad stands up The pain is getting worse, dad is having spontaneous little erections only in the middle of his penis the pain is awful when this happens. My goodness dad would go mad if he knew I was repeating all this.. the consultant today, he has told dad that it could be one of three things. 1st there is a blockage, 2nd it's a narrowing of the urethera 3rd some thing untoward in his pelvis. Have any of you chaps had to deal with this after your surgery.
I'm not getting all hot and bothered that the cancer has spread to dads pelvis because I'm sure there would have been evidence of a spread when they did biopsy of tissues during dads surgery. We were informed that the cancer had not spread 4 weeks ago... I suppose there is a slim chance it's a new cancer in his pelvis, but in truth I don't think so.
Thanks xx
