Hi Following the removal of my prostate which has left me with bladder incontinence and the resent increase in my PSA results I've been put on hormone therapy with the possibility of radiotherapy and offered an op to have a AUS fitted, has anyone any experience of having an AUS as I've been unable to find much info about such things.
Hey and a warm welcome to the online community
I was passing and noticed that your post had gone unanswered. It may be that no one here has had this operation or no one with the right experience has seen your post. By replying it will bump it back to the top of the page where it will be seen again.
I googled "artificial urinary sphincter" and found information about it on Prostate Cancer UK. Clicking on my link will take you there. As well as reading about it on their website they also have a phone line which would enable you to speak to one of their prostate cancer nurses.
You could also post your question in ask a nurse here on the Macmillan website and one of the specialist cancer nurses will respond within 2 working days.
When you have a minute could you pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
