Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Posted September 16, 2006 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 Quote
