Problems with radiation treatments

They are going to catheterize to insert water? What type of radiation? How many treatments? Will catheter remain in place during treatment? Every time a catheter is inserted there is a risk of infection adding the irritation from radiation??? Has your urologist been advised/consulted on this?

Catheter will remain in through EB treatments. Yes urologist is aware. Hes had 10 sessions so far and only the first 2 went ok. Others he has to get off the table multiple times to drink more water and the last 2 they sent him home without treatment due to bladder. So they are trying the catheter now.
