Has anyone else had issues with diverticulitis after having salvage radiation to the prostate bed . I had this done 4 years ago and have been having lower abdominal pains intermittently.

Probably not the reply you are looking for, but I had SRT over a year ago. I had bowel issues for about 3 months after completion of SRT. Issues dissipated after 3 months. I took probiotics during SRT and still do. Not necessarily recommending probiotics for relief of your symptoms just sharing my story.

Not what you're looking for?
