Radiation treatments with Foley catheter side effects

Posted by jaykwik @jaykwik, Jul 13, 2023

Hi all
Has anyone have info on side effects from external beam radiation while sporting a catheter that they can share? Was told there may be “more” irritation. Hoping to get an idea what to expect. Thanks in advance!

Radiation cystitis radiation proctitis gross hematuria hyperbaric oxygen chamber urethroplasty suprapubic catheter to name a few. Good luck. It can get bad. Then the hot flashes return. Kinda get used to blood clots and bladder spasms and trips to the ED
