Jim @wrig1jam Jim, I had the 5 treatments over 10 days SBRT at Mayo Rochester in September. I'll be back later this month to check in with my Radiation Oncologist. After the 5 treatments I did develop some problems with urination but 2 weeks of Flomax cured that and remains good. May I ask why you chose not to have the SpaceOAR gel injected? Best of luck to you!

I intended to have the SpaceOAR gel and was scheduled to have it done in early February this year, but Mayo Phoenix stopped all elective surgical treatments due to Covid. I had my 6 month hormone shot in mid November and began to get concerned about waiting to long to start treatment. Talking to my oncologist about it he said they would have to do the planning all over again and sometimes the gel wasn’t placed properly or migrated. So I decided to move ahead with treatments. So far no bowel issues.
