Hello everybody, just an update: it's been 6 months since my operation and everything is going well. My recovery is progressing nicely, although I still experience some aches, pains, and fatigue, but nothing compared to the pain I had before the operation. I'm back to working full time and I don't miss my bladder at all. I've completed my physiotherapy and now I just use stretching bands around my thighs, which really helps. 😁
