Congratulations!!
It took a while for my GI to reboot if for no other reason than I was on a low fiber diet (no gas) and had done an enema on that Tuesday(Tx #4) and Thursday (Tx #5). As of today I am at 12 days since my SBRT. Urination is essentially what I was at pre-treatment ("typical" BPH symptoms) and I continue with one Flomax a day. As to GI, urgency has improved last two days, gas seems less, no blood, BMs are reduced in size and I am still somewhat constipated.

Stay Strong Brother!
