Had 25 sessions of radiation with the markers and gel protection to both prostrate and pelvic area at the same time. Some minor diarrhea and loose stools for about 6 months and since then it has been clear sailing.
My pelvic area was done as a precaution for microscopic cancer potential. I was on Lupron 2 months prior and 4 months during and post radiation. Honestly that was worse than the radiation.
