Hi Kelso, I have gone through 20 days of RT. You will be told to drink a certain amount of water about 20 mins before RT. I only had one episode of a full bowel, which they tell you during the session, when you then have to have an enema , which only takes a few minutes, then you return for the RT. They could give you some enemas for future problems if you feel you need to take one. Hope all goes well. I had a PSA of 29 before RT, I had test a week or so later and it of .02.

Hi Gra,

How did you get on? It sounds like it all went well?

I was going to reassure you by referring you to my blog (see profile) as I posted several videos of me on the table - the team of radiographers are really great.

My PSA one month post RT was 0.4....a but high perhaps but then it was 1.8 a month before.

I'm planning to stop my HT drugs...next one due next Weds...unless my onco can twist my arm....she'll have to do a good job! I'm now now a mental health patient owing to Prostap or its side effects....
