I underwent a robotic assisted rad.pros. 2 years ago. Complications and the need to heal kept me out of the water for a awhile. But I have been back for awhile. During the healing, I became the Kegel King! Regaining continence and sexual function takes time. The only change to my current diving is I use an adult diaper when I dive in a drysuit. I have always peed in my wetsuit (don't judge me!), so wetsuit diving hasn't changed. Afterdark, it sounds like you haven't had surgery yet. I have no doubt you will do OK. If you have any questions or want to hear more about my experience just PM me.

gkwalt, I don't know how you knew but you are right on the money so far! :) Had my surgery Thursday and I am typing this from home. One night and I was up walking around this AM. The MD tells me that everything went well and I can expect full function after I heal! No heavy lifting for 3 weeks. Next week the tube comes out and the real test begins. It is a wonderful thing after years of urgency not to feel it anymore. I expect to sleep all night tonight the 1st time in almost 10 years!!!!!!

Thanks again everyone.
