Hello, My salvage radiation 6 yrs after surgery has left no SE’s as of now, one full year after treatment (with ADT). But that could change in the future; radiation sensitivity varies highly from patient to patient and to date, it is still unpredictable.
But the fact that you are ‘partially incontinent’ from surgery ( stress? Lifting?) ‘could’ make your SE’s more pronounced. But what can you do - not do the SRT?
When I saw the list of all the possible SE’s from SRT, I thought - “OK…or die from metastatic prostate cancer”. Wasn’t much of a decision for me after that.
