Needing to go to bathroom extremely fast, WHY?¿

Any experience with NPH? Hydro Sephulus?

It looks like the radiation hit your bowel and it is causing some issues. These type of issues frequently go away over time.

How long has it been since your treatment?

One month max. Thanks for reflection.

This is common and takes time for prostate, bladder, colon to calm down.

During your consultation did they not go over side effects or urgency and frequent urination? If no asked your urologist or R/O to go over them.

You can also research online at Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, John Hopkins, Web MD, etc. for side effects of your treatments and time frames.

I had proton radiation on entire prostate that I was told because of need to radiate margins also would affect my colon, bladder, etc. I had urgent urination and frequency for months afterward. About a year after treatments, it really started getting better and now (almost 2 years later) other than trying to urinate when I feel the urge rather than wait is back to normal.

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

@bluerock1 Have you ever purchased and studied Dr. Patrick Walsh's book " Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer " . It is highly recommended on this forum . Additionally follow . Dr. Mark Scholz , U Tube Videos regarding all issues related to prostate cancer .
Good luck .

10 days post EBRT and take Imodium for bowels and Oxybutynin for bladder urgency. That stopped the fast Penguin walk to the bathroom.

Many thanks.
