Taxotere - 11 week (kh) kh asked me...after I revealed the secret of my new favorite Merlot...'Fisheye' the $5 screwcap (no joke...) "How is it splashed on roasting beef? Does it go well with the turnips, carrots, and onions in the pan? Like I said, you pour yourself a glass, sip some, open the oven door, and splash a little on th... 17 Jul 2008 12:43

Surgery... NB wrote: The surgeon told me I would be incontinent for life. It's semantics. No RP patient should *expect* to stay dry jumping on a trampoline or changing a set of snow tires, and that could be termed, "incontinent". And incontinence specialists have told me that a pad or three a day for life is commo... 20 Jul 2008 08:22
Nerve Sparing Surgery... About I.P.'s comments on Muzak in the operating room, Steve Tew said: "I really don't think they use Muzak now, IP. More than likely they have a boom box cranking Pfish, Foo Fighters, or Green Day, although I would like to think they were listening to Alison Krauss or Achoustic Alchemy while cutting on me... :o... 17 Jul 2008 11:41

Nerve Sparing Surgery...NICK My understanding is that they TRY to save the nerves instead of just removing them. And...I know that even if they SPARE them...if they are pulled, stretched or squeezed during the operation...it can affect the erectile function down the line. A lot of other guys here are more exPERT than I am. Best, R... 17 Jul 2008 12:43
Nerve Sparing Surgery.... Why do they call it nerve sparing surgery when some of the nerves are removed? Also, why don't they tell you in advance that nerve sparing doesn't mean that you will have all of your nerves after the surgery. I lost just over 20% of my nerves on both sides. Lots of post surgery complications too. Impotent and i... 24 Jul 2008 14:59 |
