I had to have a catheter inserted yesterday because my urethra was so constricted from the swelling caused by the brachytherapy that I couldn’t pee. I had some rough nights. This only happens in 5-10% of the cases, but I’m one of them. The catheter is a great relief to the bladder but a little uncomfortable. I have some pills (Atasol 30) to reduce the discomfort.
