Leakage after robotic Prostatectomy

Good evening, 

just had my catheter removed after robotic Prostatectomy, was expecting some leakage but taken aback by lack of control! Pelvic floor exercises restarted, anyone with any other useful tips on gaining control and moving forward, most appreciated if you do?

    I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with some post-treatment side effects now that your catheter has been removed. It's understandably a difficult time. 

    I wanted to let you know about this post recently made by one of our members . Hopefully, as I've tagged him in my reply to you he will pop along to share his experiences with you and offer any words of advice. 

    Don't be afraid to contact your clinical nurse specialist if you're worried about things. Alternatively, you're welcome to chat things through with one of our team of nurses. I know they will be happy to offer any advice, information, and support they can. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I hope things settle and improve for you soon. 

    Best wishes,
