I discovered the bladder damage a year later though a cystoscopy. That's also unusual, but not unheard of (usually any problems emerge a few weeks after radiation therapy and clear up in a few months). It's not serious— just at the very bottom of the bladder— but it gave me a rough time over the summer after a UTI aggravated it. It's not bothering me much now.

The uretha sparing sounds good.My radiation oncologist said he did not reduce radiation around uretha as some cancer could be missed.Had 4th sbrt today and he said all went well.Showed me how planning had been set up and images of spacer and fudiciary markers.Starting flomax tonight.Urinated 7 times last night.I have been using Mirolax.Think I will try Ducolax. Thanks and you stay strong also Brother.
