I did not experience fatigue...

No issues with sleep...

Bladder manages was my biggest "hassle!"

Enjoy those beers.

Chiefs, Chargers and Bills are out so I have no dog in the fight.

@kujhawk1978 LOL Go Rams! Not! But seriously, husband is facing 38 treatments driving to Mayo Clinic in FL which with traffic is 1:15 drive each way. post RP he has some UI currently, 1 small pad per day. Left nerves were not spared. They’ve talked to us about bowel prep and drinking water, etc. They are proposing Photon IBRT which I’ve read can damage other areas as compared to protons but needed for treating larger area (PSA rising but nothing showing on scans - go “assuming” its in prostate bed).
What “bladder hassles” did you have? Any advice for him as he gets ready? Currently, when we get to Mayo he has to go straight to the bathroom. But now with having to drink water on way up, for appts trying to figure that out.
