Expected side effects of adjuvant radiotherapy after prostatectomy?

Thank you for your advice. I do have baseline overactive bladder issues, so one concern I have - among many - is raditation may exacerbate this parttcular problem. But like you said, getting treatment at a top notch RO team is the best way to reduce the risk of serious and lingering sideffects that destroy my quality of life.

@soli I had bladder cancer and my URO was concerned that the radiation would reactivate it and send it to a more aggressive state.
I decided not to worry about things I couldn’t control and to focus on what I could. So far so good but if the bladder cancer comes back, I’ll have to deal with it. What else is new?
