Low Blow: One mans story about his prostate surgery and recovery

Low Blow - One man's battle with prostate cancer: MSNBC.com

This is one mans story about his bout with prostate cancer and his recovery from robotic prostatectomy. Mr. Stuckey should be commended for sharing his story, as it will help thousands of men deal with their cancer more effectively. Much of the anxiety men deal with cancer is from not knowing what to expect and the fear of the unknown.

There is a message board that people can post at and read from other people's experience.

Remember when reading people's story, there is a wide range of results that depend on patient factors, surgeon factors, and to an extent luck. I have one patient who has had a perfect result who has been discussing his recovery on the site, but I also have patients that I have expected to have full recoveries who have not.
