Is your poop smaller diameter? Mine was smaller for months after SpacerOar. Normalized after 4-6 months.

It's an issue if you have hard stool and get constipated. Easily prevented with proper diet & hydration -- and I also regularly use a stool softener (Metamucil).

Yes! I just assumed that was a side effect of radiation and never even thought about the SpaceOAR. Good to know that eventually it will no longer look like it came from the Play Doh Fun Factory.
