They are not fun, but if done correctly, they are high on the uncomfortable scale and very low on the painful scale. The side effects of the antibiotic given for the procedure, Cipro, were easily 1,000 times more painful than the actual procedure. An open radical prostatectomy, on the other hand, is high on the painful scale, but the pain is short lived and absolutely nothing compared to metastatic prostate cancer.
Here is hoping your results show a low Gleason score of 2 or 3 and you have nothing serious to worry about, fingers crossed.
