@aardvark2118 and @keirahaley it wouldn’t hurt to ask what the chances are of developing incontinence. I know of five people - men as well as women - who are now incontinent after radiation for bladder, prostate, ovarian or cervical cancer.

Yes, it is true that fatigue is a big side effect too, but it is not a permanent side effect.
