For anyone considering prostate surgery, Dr. Patel is the best surgeon, with the most experience in the world. The worry of the procedure was harder on me than the operation and recovery. After 2-3 months i had no side affects. Good luck on your recovery, go slow for awhile, it took me about 3 months to feel back to normal physical activities.

That is what we found too!! The worry was much worse than the experience. That is why I went into such detail. We wish someone had told us, in detail, what to expect.
Bill played his first round of golf today, 4 weeks after surgery and his game didn't suffer much. He also went to water aerobics today and says he feels great. (I think the weight loss gets some of the credit too!)
Glad to hear that you had such great results! Those PSAs of 0 are what we are looking for next!
