Just found the PRDA!
After surgery, chemo, pelvic radiation and
brachytherapy
for an aggressive endometrial cancer, I thought things were ok. But bowel issues have been challenging as well as pelvic insufficiency fractures. I struggle to achieve balance and quality of life.

Nocturia
Ever since my radiotherapy and
brachytherapy
2 months ago I have been suffering nocturia, sometimes being forced awake 5 times a night by a painful call and having little or no product when staggering once again to the toilet for a little dribble.

Which Treatment for These Biopsy Results?
I am considering LDR
Brachytherapy
, but my HOLEP 12 years ago might preclude BT. VMAT IMRT + HT, VMAT IMRT without HT, possibly LDR
Brachytherapy
, Active Surveillance are the only treatments available to me in my neck of the woods. Which would you recommend given my stats.

PSA bounce after LDR brachytherapy?
Hi all, First, an update, as my last full update about various issues was five weeks after LDR
brachytherapy
(almost two years ago), in which I reported that, thankfully, I had no urinary, bowel, or sexual function issues.

Chemorads/Brachytherapy late side effects
Just wondering if anyone else experiencing the same? I’m now 4.5 years out of Chemorad treatment with all clear scans.

Cyproterone and Blood Pressure
I am currently on LHRH hormone therapy in preparation for radiotherapy followed by HDR
brachytherapy
for my locally advanced PCa, T3a Gleason 8, no visible mets fortunately. I have been suffering from quite unpleasant hot flushes which have shown no signs of going away.

Sword of Damocles
Hi, I am a month away from completing my initial treatment (external beam and
brachytherapy
, followed by 2 years of Lupron, Zytiga, and prednisone). I am not sure what to expect as my oncologist was not effusive in showing me a life I can expect.

Need Help Interpreting My PSMA/PET SCAN
The prostate is present and contains
brachytherapy
seeds. There is a mildly F-18 PYL avid focus in the region of the right seminal vesicle with SUVmax of 4.85. No other abnormal F-18 PYL avid focus is noted within the prostate although there is a low level of the diffuse activity. 2.
