I had 39 salvage radiation treatments approximately 7 years ago and now am experiencing bowel cramping and IBS symptoms. Anyone else out there have any long term issues with salvage radiation ? Thank you Stephen.

Hello @firespooks. I am sorry you are experiencing these symptoms.

You will notice that I have moved your post into an existing discussion on salvage radiation, which you can find here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/salvage-radiation/

I did this so you may connect with members like @round5 who had done two rounds of salvage radiation treatment.

Have you always had some type of GI symptoms following your treatment or has this just come on recently?
