Sorry, gsd, no evaluation of BPH prior to radiation. Should also mention that the radiation I have had so far (still 10 sessions to go) has inflamed my rectal wall, despite having SpaceOAR gel implanted to protect the rectum. Will discuss with RO on Monday. Sure hope this pain will not be permanent.

Mark1952, just checking in to find out what you learned from your visit with your radiation oncologist. Did she/he have suggestions to treat your inflamed rectal wall? Hopefully it was something simple like anti-inflammatory medication or suppositories.

Best wishes!
GSD
