I didn't know that people experienced pain weeks later. Thanks for a important correction.

@gently Most people who get radiation treatment to the prostate don't experience pain later, and those who do usually get over it quickly.
Even for the small minority who don't get over it (I have long-term mild radiation cystitis and proctitis), it's not that bad, and you get used to it. It does add a little excitement to spicy-food night, though. 😕
