Radiation Proctitis treatment.

Yes.  Make sure you contact the Pelvic Radiation Disease Association.  They gave me the details of a doctor who specialised in this at a hospital about an hour's drive from my home.  My cancer hospital referred me there.

I was given a SEHCAT scan to check bile salt reabsorption and a colonoscopy.  

In the end, I opted for treatment to help control my bowel movements....I was basically bowel incontinent at that time.

Yeah thank you for that. I’ve to have a colonoscopy too, just to confirm diagnosis and then possible laser treatment . Many thanks.

I had EBR for PC which had spread locally (Gleeson 9). It was diagnosed in Jan '22, and I was immediately put on ADT for 2 years, with 20 doses of RT in August '22. About 9 months later I developed Radiation Proctitis, which I still have 2 years later. The severity varies but typically consists of passing small amount of blood at irregular intervals, soreness of the rectum  particularly after a bowel movement, and more recently tenesmus, i.e. a feeling that my bowel is full whether it is or not, which can make life quite difficult at times.

Medical intervention has consisted of laxatives (macrogol) which helped to soften stools, 2 courses of costocorteroid steroids anal foam  (predfoam) which were not at all effective, but they haven't come up with anything else. As things stand I can see this going on for a long time.

Does anyone else have experience of Chronic Proctitis and its treatment?

Thanks for this. Very similar to my situation. I go in for laser treatment next month. Good everything goes well for you and your condition improves.👍
