Well, I completed the 25th of 25 EBRT's today. Few side affects to report. A
very little discomfort peeing and I get up a few times during the night but
nothing I can't live with. Flomax helps. Also, Tylenol PM - per Dr.
suggestion to help sleep longer between get-ups.
Next up: Seeds on June 10.
So, nothing to do now but live with it for the next three weeks. Will be in
the land-o-sunshine all next week on business. Wife is coming along. That
will be nice.

Good luck to all,
Larry

My doctor recommended using lots of skin cream on all
the exposed areas.  I found that a very good idea.  I still
occasionally feel some irritation and find the skin creams
sooth it away.

Enjoy your trip south.

Hi Alan,
Good point. I've been using a skin lotion with aloe in it and I haven't had
a problem at all. Could be the reason. It's good you mentioned it to the
group.

Enjoy the sunshine, Larry!  Glad to hear you've finished up with the EBRT
and that all is well!

Take care!

Glad to hear it went so well. Plumbing should improve over the next few
weeks. Enjoy the trip.

Sounds like you're on your way.  

I hope the remaining treatments go well for you.

All the best from the land of 10000 lakes and 500000000*10 (or more)
