Thanks for the information. I am dealing with bleeding, clots and leakage after proton therapy and cystoscopy and catheter. Wondering if it will stop? One clot got me to ER as it blocked urine flow. Not sure what next step is or do I just learn to deal with the blood, etc. every day.
any input?

@bgm1157 I'm sorry to hear that. Since you had a cystoscopy, you must have been dealing with a urologist or urology oncologist.

What did they suggest? How bad was the damage they saw on the scope (you might have had a chance to watch, too; I did for mine, and saw how my bladder lining had a fine network of angry red lines down near the bottom where the radiation damaged it).

There are treatments available, like filling your bladder with pure oxygen daily for a couple of weeks to promote healing, but only your urology specialist would know if they're appropriate for you. It sounds like you need to have a serious conversation with them.

Best of luck!
