hi radar

my best suggestion would be have a talk with the specialist nurses, not sokething I have experianced but whenever I spoken with them they have given good advice

Hi Radar,

I agree with Nidge, perhaps it's best to talk to your Cancer Support Nurse about this. 

I've never had any pain from that area, so I don't really feel I can help much more.

Anyway, hope it gets sorted.  May have been a one-off incident.

Good luck.

Steve

How long is it since you had the RT? It could be side effects from that. Maybe it's a simple as a bladder infection. I should give your nurse a call in the morning.

After my husband had his brachytherapy he would experience what you say. It was enough to take his breath away.
It followed a bowel movement, peeing or sex. Fortunately that seems to have abated but at the time he was worried that it was a permanent side effect of the radio seeds.

Hope you get it sorted radar.
All the best
Sandra

When a person has been diagnosed/treated for PCa there is a tendency to think any pains like this can be PCa related when often this is not the case. However not unreasonable to allay serious concerns by seeking advice.

Sounds like a spasm to me - uncomfortable but fairly harmless
