I have a relative who had one of those recently. He says it wasn't too bad and he's now doing fine.
Mr. Foxfyre also had his cancerous prostate removed a year and a half ago and though there's no way to sugarcoat the aftermath of that, he had minimal discomfort and is also doing fine.
I worked in hospitals for enough years to be fully aware of the Medical Deity syndrome and it sucked then and it sucks now. But medical technology can do some wonderful things and its getting better all the time. But all things have an up side and down side I guess.
