A rubbish day!
After a nerve sparing prostate removal in Jan 23 and what looked like contained cancer in the prostate on the biopsy it appears that it wasn't all removed and that some naughty cancer cells lingered. For two tests all looked good but then less good news.

Latest meeting with Oncologist advised to have salvage Radiotherapy on just the prostate bed.
A few questions if anyone can help
I have been advised either 20 sessions or 32 sessions. What are the advantages of 32 sessions over 20. I was advised lesser side effects. Are they worth the extra 12 sessions?
Any side effects that people have experienced?
Are you allowed to miss the odd session or does it need to be 5 days a week?
Any general advice appreciated?
Hope everyone is coping ok and as ever thanks for your advice and support.
