hamstring and quadricep muscles cramp post radical prostatectomy

I am 10 months post-surgery and recovery from a radical prostatectomy with "No Evidence of Disease" to this point. In returning to my watersport's activities of skiing and floating, I am now experiencing issues with my hamstring and quadricep muscles cramping. I never had these issues before the surgery. I've read some sites suggesting nerve damage could be the issue. Has anyone else experienced this after the surgery?
Thanks!

  1. Hi I am glad to hear your surgery went well and you are resuming your hobbies. I can understand your frustrations with muscle cramping. While I hope our community members respond with their personal experiences, I would definitely recommend you to reach out to your doctor about this, if you haven't already. They would know your situation best and hopefully would have some suggestions to help with this. We are here for you. Jill, prostatecancer.net team
