Good result John.    Gypsy Petulengro will be pleased, I took a photo of her place last time you mentioned asking the gypsy fortune teller.

Here's a link to Gypsy Petulengro's place if you're ever round North Pier Blackpool.

Eighteen month post-operative PSA test result is <0.1, undetectable, as is my erectile function. Hey ho.

Looks like Da Vinci did a good job together with his sidekick Professor Whocannotbenamedhere. I’m sending DaVinci a Christmas card, together with a Christmas drink - a Poundland can of WD40...

Cheers, John.

Good news on the cancer, not so good on the ED, is continence still good, if so two out of three is pretty good. The ED can always be sorted other ways, and there is still time for improvement.

Thanks Chris.

Hi Chris,

We have given up on all that sex malarkey, although I can still have a β€˜sort of’ orgasm with what Da Vinci left behind.

Continence is not really a problem, and I only bought one pack of fourteen Tena Lites eighteen months ago and I still have seven left. Sometimes when I get up off the settee a droplet might appear, but if I get very drunk and fall asleep on the settee I sometimes have a big leakage. This only started a few months ago. Maybe I am drinking more?

Anyway, no worries. Keep breathing!

Cheers, John.

I went through a phase about 2 years after my OP where drink was a big problem, p****d myself on a night out dancing with my new girlfriend, she later became my wife so no harm done!

Just got back in from a comedy night, first time in years I have supped 5 pints and laughed my head off - no leaks at all.

Fantastic news :-). I’ll drink to that when my bladder augmented reality kit is out so I don’t have to plug into the matrix every night.

Had the odd mishap over the years after a heavy night myself. The catalyst for me appears to be shots/shorts specifically whisky or brandy appear to send me into a coma. Beer or wine is fine so will stick to that when I have a tipple nearer Xmas.

have a great weekend

Just following doctor’s orders: ‘Drink plenty of fluids’.

Surprisingly, my liver function is normal...πŸ˜‹

Cheers, John.

Good God - have I really only had to tolerate you for 21 months? It seems so much longer.

Truly happy for you - great result πŸ‘

26 month post-op PSA test = <0.1 β€œundetectable”, here in Coventry yesterday. Might not be undetectable elsewhere, but I really think β€˜super-sensitive assay’ causes more worry than it’s worth. Ignorance is bliss!

Have switched subsequent tests to six-monthly in my diary.

Many thanks again, to the NHS team at Guildford and Professor Whocannotbenamedhere.

Cheers, John.
