Recurrence After RP

I think our member Capitalman was one of the men Lyn may have had in mind. He has not posted for a long time but when last he did he had been urinary incontinent for 4 years and counting. I believe he had a top surgeon too but they also have bad results. Of course ,overall better results should be had from an experienced and highly regarded surgeon than from a less experienced one.

So it has to be understood that sometimes results are poor. This thread is quite interesting :- https://community.prostatecanceruk.org/posts/t7691-Continence#post107637

Rather than clog up someone else’s thread it seems more polite to respond to you here.

I don’t see this as my personal fiefdom at all but I do feel very protective of the more anxious or distressed members on here (that you don’t know and seem to have no respect for) and I have been around long enough to see others like you. You have had cancer for 5 minutes and suddenly think you are an expert, giving poor advice to others based on what two mates told you. I should just ignore you as most of the other regular posters do, but it worries me that even newer members than you will join, read your ‘advice’ and believe that you know what you are talking about. Your friend with the Coutts account has you sussed, perhaps - or has already been diagnosed but doesn’t particularly want it discussed.

Your maxim is a sensible one but you haven’t really stuck to it. We should just try to stay out of each other’s way but if you tell a new member incorrect info, I will continue to correct it unless the moderators tell me not to.
