Greetings all,

A few weeks ago I announced my plans to undergo robotic RP for my PCa.

(Stage T1c, Gleason 7, PSA 9.75). I'm happy to report things went very

well. I was discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon 24 hrs

after surgery. -now dealing with a bloated and sore belly. I have

some Vicatin for pain but so far, I'm just taking Tylenol. I'm back to

a regular diet and walking feels good. If this is as bad as it gets, I

will feel truly lucky. I'm cautiously optimistic for a full recovery

but withholding judgment until my follow up visit next week to have the

catheter removed and see the pathology report.

I had my surgery at Rochester (NY) General Hospital by Dr. Valvo.

His team and the hospital staff (and my wonderful wife, of course!)are

first rate!! I will report later findings.

Best regards,

-Tony Higgins
