Any diet restrictions with radiation? What were your side effects?

I had CyberKnife, five sessions. I was on a low-fiber diet for aiming session and then the radiation sessions (to shrink the rectum so it's less of a target), plus a Fleet enema before each session. The diet's not great, but it's worth it.

How did you decide to do CyberKnife? I am haven’t heard much about it. Is it best for less aggressive cancer? Did you have to take hormones? What are the side effects?

So the diet is specific to the treatment option ? As opposed to the disease I guess?
