About this listen
This booklet details a personal journey through high-risk prostate cancer, beginning with the diagnosis and the decision to undergo robotic surgery using the da Vinci system rather than brachytherapy. The author recounts their preparation for the procedure, including pre-operative physiotherapy, and describes the emotions and physical sensations experienced during the surgery itself. Significant attention is given to the realities and challenges of post-surgery recovery, covering issues such as catheter use, pain management, and regaining bladder control through dedicated physiotherapy. The text also provides practical tips for patients, explains key medical terms like the Gleason score, and includes diagrams illustrating the surgical process and post-operative anatomy, concluding with insights on essential health checks and exercises beneficial for recovery.
