Wiv-ide - diagnosed with prostate cancer

I am 66 year old diagnosed of prostate cancer  and awaiting external beam radio therapy pending a reduction in my PSA level. I am currently on Bilacutamide 150 mg. 

I would like to know the symptons to watch out for while awaiting my radio therapy.

Thanks.
