27. ‘’Paul’’- Prostate Cancer Conqueror & Passionate Swimmer with a Sling!

27. ‘’Paul’’- Prostate Cancer Conqueror & Passionate Swimmer with a Sling!

Meet Paul.

Paul is a 75 year old swimmer and a survivor of Prostate Cancer.

Instead of opting for the usual prostatectomy, he opted for Robotic Surgery.

You see, Paul is an avid swimmer and having the usual operation to remove his prostate was not ideal – so after discussion and great decisiveness, he opted for the Robotic surgery.

When we asked Paul about the pain after the surgery, he said ‘Very, very little’.

The pain was very little that he was able to go back to swimming activities even just after 4 weeks. He just had to go back to the swimming pool as soon as possible (what an amazing drive!).

However, the major problem that Paul encountered was that he was leaking heavily – leaking at almost a litre and a half a day. He was using almost 7 pads per day. Even disposing the pads was quite an issue. He had to actually duck into women’s toilets to dispose of them!

Here’s an episode where we discussed the initiative of providing Bins for Blokes (Episode 10) >>

And when he swims, he has to use tissue papers to hide the leakage. (Sorry, we forgot to ask what brand of tissue he used!)

Then he met with Dr. Jo who gave him a lot of confidence to handle the incontinence.

To also help with the leakage, he opted for the Advanced Sling Operation. You can actually find out more about this in Episode 19 where Mr. Positive Penis talked about it.

Please click here to listen to Episode 19 >>

The operation helped him address the leakage but had to endure almost 6 weeks of pain from the operation site.

Here are some amazing takeaways from this episode:
  1. Apples are OUT, Oranges are IN for constipation.
  2. Buy good quality tissues!
  3. Drinking more than 4 glasses of champagne causes leakage.
  4. Keep taking PSA tests even after surgery and encourage the ones around you to take the test, too.
  5. Do not procrastinate, do your exercises.
  6. Clubs and joining support groups are very important.

And lastly,

Know that you can do whatever you like, but it’s gonna come from within and it should be something that you really like. Passion is the key to a long happy life.
