I had brachytherapy in July 2024 I’ve had nothing but trouble . EDF, pain every time I pass water been told it’s radiation burns then the senior urologist tells me it would have healed by now, but THINKS it could be that the bladder has shrunk and that I have 2 strictures in the uretha so I am having to self catheterise 3 times a week for a year . The only good thing to come out of this ordeal is that the cancer in the prostate has gone. However it has left me depressed and regretting ever having the treatment, I honestly wish I had let the cancer take its own course even though I would probably have been dead by now. My advice for what it is worth think seriously before you go ahead with brachytherapy.
