Congrats Mozart! Glad to hear that you are hanging in there. Good luck in your next few weeks and hope you overcome your flu soon!

Radiation complete today.  Woohoo.

I am thankful (to God) that I seem to have experienced none of the side effects that my radiologist warned could happen with a small percentage of folks who do radiation.  And I am thankful that the normal side effects really were nothing in the big scheme of things.  I suspect the biggest side effect here will be to my bank account.

Anyway..hopefully my PSA goes down to 0 and stays that way forever.  If not, I guess it is on to plan C.

Wonderful news that you have completed the radiation treatments without the side effects. I just completed #15 out of 36 this morning and only have 21 left. To date I have only had a small bowel activity that I have been able to control with a little over the counter aid and no big deal. Here's hoping that all those trips pay off and your PSA get's back to 0.
