Post radiation issues

Happy to say my last Cyberknife radiation treatment was completed, Tuesday, Marc 31 2020. After the third treatment I did start having issues with the urgency to urinate often. To be expected I understand. Never had these symptoms pre treatment. RaOc said they will probably stop eventually because I didn't have issues before even though I'm 68. My IBS is differently worse. Wishing everyone safety, healthy success with your PC and that we come out of this pandemic soon.

Congrats on completing your treatment. May it be your last. I hope it proves itself by eradicating your cancer. I hope you have many more years with a high quality of life and your IBS will become a thing of the past very quickly.

You did it. Be a proud survivor.

Good luck there and congrats on finishing your cyberknife experience! If you are having such difficulties, your urologist or the cyberknife team could likely prescribe some medication to ease this situation, so suggest to reach out to them if you can again. Hoping all well be great for you for many years to come!
