What kind of radiation you had for salvage ?

@melvinw I had similar especially fatigue and loose bowels with a few flecks of blood. The struggle got real near the end for bowels, bladder urgency and fatigue. At some point after radiation, almost complete loss of bowel control for a couple a few weeks. It quieted down then reappeared 6 months later and at almost 8 months post finally quieting down again. Radiation seems to be the gift that keeps on giving for a period of time. RO didn't do a thing for me. Fired him after finishing ADT. Wanted me in for blood work 2 DAYS after ADT for blood work. I had blood work at 3 months so knew it was working. Nothing but a money grab. I am doing 3 month blood work post treatment and they also want me to come in to give me my results, generating another billable event for them. Money grab.

@chippydoo Man, that sounds messed up. Calling you in to discuss test results seems unnecessary, unless there is something seriously bad to discuss. I always get test results directly from the lab through my account, then I will get a message from the doc. Even when I had an MRI scan, I got the radiologist’s report directly, then discussed it over the phone with my RO.
