I had my Prostatectomy operation on August 11th and it went fine.  Currently, I’m recovering at home.  On the 19th, I go in for a followup visit to have my catheter removed and to get my prostate biopsy results.  With luck, the cancer will have been confined to the prostate itself and its removal will have ended the problem.  You good wishes that it should turn out this way will be much appreciated.
I’ll post more when I know more.
