You will be fine LR:

I have been to Mass General. I went there after THREE other stinkin hospitals couldn't get it right....with my "Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm". Mass General got it right the first time they tried..(10 Hours).... and by the time I got there.... they only had hamburger to work with.. That was 14 years ago. No problems since.

Mass General is the THE BEST IN THE WORLD. This is not just MY opinion..it is the opinion of their peers....and has been for awhile.

This is my first post and I'm pleased that it is to offer you a speedy recovery. I had my prostate removed using the DaVinci Robot at Mt Sinai in Manhatten several years ago. I was on my way home in less than 24 hours and only took one pain pill after the operation. I never experienced ED and within a month I had no inconenance problems. According to my experience, DaVinci is the way to go for many procedures as long as the surgeon is well trained. My doctor was David Samadi who is also on the FOX news medical "A" team.

This was posted earlier this week. It is a very cool website where Paul's progress is documented daily. What a great way to communicate with family and friends. I don't know Lakesrider but for his posts here, but have been following his progress.... He is a member of our forum family!

Sorry, but having worked in cardiac care, MGH is not the best. And the best Children's hospital is CHOP, not Boston.

I say this as choosing the right surgeon or hospital can be all the difference in the world.
