@heavyphil Yeah, I was less than impressed with her response to the issue. She has good medical creds, and I believe she knows what she is doing as regards prescribing the radiation. But she isn’t so great at answering questions that catch her a little off guard. No one is perfect, and we get on fine otherwise. And my radiation therapist is really dialed in to helping me get things right, so in some ways, that is more important to me. I’m getting good care when I’m on the table. Gratitude for that.
So far the Senna is keeping me regular with bowel movements. Adjusting my diet a bit seems to be working for controlling the gas. Also, I moved to an 11:30a time from a 1:00p time, and that works much better with how things go with my GI tract.
Cheers,
