My five year update:
Next week will be five years post RARP. Latest PSA 0.02.
ED no further improvement for about a year and not satisfactory. I've been on 5mg/day Tadalafil for 3 years, use Sildenafil for events with very limited success. Still using the pump most days. I can't use caverject due to priapism. Invicorp is not available yet in my area but that's work in progress. This is having an effect mentally now and if nothing happens reasonably soon I will consider implants.
Urge and frequency is still an issue but manageable. Flying is the worst and I fear the seat belt sign.
Still self catherterising to keep stricture open which after the initial couple of months is now no problem.
Regarding PSA of 0.02. I am still interested in how it could be undetectable for three years and then steady at 0.02 for the last two. I know PSA is a misnomer and can be produced by other organs apart from the prostate but if that were the case why undetectable for three years? The same for prostate cells left behind. I expect a further rise at some point.
Cheers
Bill
