@brianjarvis Proton therapy. The AZO and FlowMAX feel better this am and hope it continues during the day.
I’ve peed on the table 3 times so far and am hopeful they did not radiate over another organ which is possible when your bladder water drops
Someone suggested 18oz 30 minutes prior to the session will try that. They are always late and sometimes I just can’t hold it back any longer. Then they give me 8oz of water to drink and send in another patient and then I wait another 40 minutes.
The whole water process makes me dizzy!

@mhordes They need to realize how important it is to stay on time. My appointments were always at either 2:30 or 3:30 each afternoon, allowing me to plan my hydration. And to make sure that I had no excuses, they gave me a temporary handicapped parking placard so that I could park right next to the facility.
I never had to wait more than 2 minutes once I arrived - quite a few times they were right there waiting for me when I walked in.
I had 28 sessions of proton radiation also; @ 2.5 Grays of radiation per session, totaling 70 Grays of radiation. (Similar for you, I suppose.)
