I'm getting a discharge from the rear particularly if I have wind! Has anyone suffered from this and can offer any advice please

When you say discharge do you mean blood? because you can get bouts of blood after radiation. I get them a couple of times a year doc says it is OK

..... and if you mean mucus, this is also a side effect of RT and to be expected. You may have developed radiation proctitis; if you are concerned you should speak to your GP or the nurse specialist at the hospital.

Thanks for your replies - yes this is mucus and i've had radiotherapy so I guess it's a side/late effect
