I had the markers inserted rectally for my salvage radiation, no problems at all with it.
q95oldies, Did they put your markers in rectally or transpernial?
I had biopsies done transpernial with anesthesia not rectal and anesthesia. I have not heard of markers being put in rectally they are usually transpernial (scrotum area).
I had the markers and Space/Oar done at same time transpernial. They gave me antibiotics to take before procedure. The used a smear test to determine which antibiotic was suited for me.
No issues at all even pain but could feel the Space/Oar as has a pressure type feeling.
