    I've gone though the experience in Australia. Unfortunately my prostate cancer had spread, luckily caught just in time, but had negative outcome for bladder issues and permanently on hormone treatment which is very effective with stopping further spread of the cancer. Couldn't urinate for three months after surgery without catheter, eventually resolved, but had to have a urine flow stimulus unit implanted in my lower back. Trust all goes well for you, if you wish to discuss further send me a PM. In the meantime to reassure you the side effects I underwent are relatively rare i.e. approx 2% of patients having undergone surgery. I have been informed robotic surgery is now the gold standard for prostate cancer treatment, but you would need to discuss with your specialist regarding potential risk for sexual function. There are a number of national prostate cancer advisory groups in the English speaking world for more detailed info / stats etc

    Sorry to hear that, sounds you were very unlucky.

    Had my prostatectomy done in the Bangkok Pattaya hospital by a Doctor Niti and others. He is an excellent urologist and I would recommend him.

    I had/have no problem taking a pi55 thankfully but as I was explained that can be down to the skill of the Doctor as there are many very small nerves in the area which can be damaged

    considering weight (your weight, its weight), price, ruggedness, cost of repair, etc. ... join a health club for whatever duration ?

    i'd be curious to know if anyone here who weighs over 70  kg. has a frequently used  treadmill over one year old ...  purchased for  20k  baht or less  ...  that has not broken down.

    if you go to a health club, you might get ... inspiration; or, guilt, that motivates you.

    To my shame I am well over 70Kg but my Horizon treadmill  puts up with it every day.

    Bought about 5 years ago, am sure not over 20k
