After 25 rounds of IMRT, I had LD Brachytherapy 9 weeks ago at age 67. The ADT (Eligard) side effects are almost gone but the pain is worse than it was the first 6 weeks after seeds. There have been 2 instances of sharp pain from my prostate/annal cavity where I had to take prescribed pain meds left over from the Brachytherapy procedure. It is hard to tell if this pain is prostate or anal cavity. Considering my stool is narrow, I am suspecting anal swelling. I have no idea what triggers the accute pain but it is worse now than when I first had my brachytherapy. I have been on Flomax 2 times/day and 5 weeks ago started meds for urgency (Solifenacin Succinate 10 MG ). I opted for homehealth services after Brachytherapy and 3 weeks ago the nurse took a urine sample which showed no infection but my Urologist put me on antiobiotics due to culture related results. As far as the pain goes, I havn't felt any better since completing the antibiotics. I guess my question to the group is for those who have had LD Brachytherapy and had painful urination and occasional accute pain, when did it start to getting better? I'm in my 9th week now since the procedure. I have had my 4 week follow ups with Oncologist and Urologist; at which time I started the extra dose of Flomax and Solifenacin Succinate for urgency to minimize getting up so much at night. It is my understanding that sometimes it takes 4-6 weeks for the Solifenacin Succinate to start working. After almost 6 weeks now, I really cant tell much of a difference in urgency and getting up at night. I'm hoping maybe there is someone on in this group that has had similar experiences that they wouldn't mind sharing. Thank You in Advance!
