Beginning EBRT next week. Do I need to follow a low-fiber diet?

Yes, North, like Cyberknife and MRIdian 5 session tx. But @clandeboye posted that they’re even doing just TWO sessions now in some cases….I can hear the sizzle now!🫣

@heavyphil & northoftheborder I have just completed my 5th and last SBRT treatment. 40 Gy (5 times 800 cGy). My PSA test will be in mid-July. Do I need to follow a low-fiber diet?
I asked my oncologist, and she said, "For as long as you take Orgovyx, not because of SBRT."
(She told me last week that we will know if I will be on Orgovyx for 8 months, one year, or longer. I think it depends on what my PSAs will show. I read in another discussion topic that with Gleason 9, ADT should be 18 months minimum. I was Gleason 7 (3+4) two months ago; has any one with Gleason 7 been off ADT before 18 months?)

Dr. Andrew Loblaw was a key player in the 2 vs 5 Fraction Analysis at the Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto . The " TOFFEE META ANALYSIS " .
