Hi all,
Just wondering how long it is taking people to get back to sports after ldr brachy? I play padel a fair bit, run and golf occasionally.
Thanks
Hello Joode
I have just noticed your post hasn't had any replies - by me replying it will go back to the top of the page and I hope seen and answered by someone who has "been there - got the t-shirt".
We have some general advice in this link:
Best wishes - Brian.

Hello Joode
I didn’t have Brachytherapy therapy so not sure if this helps but I had 20 x RT and rested from sport for about a week after. It was and is still the long term Hormone Therapy pre and post RT that has the major effects on any sporting prowess for me.
Best wishes Richard
Thanks Richard - I think the issue with brachytherapy is dislodging the seeds inserted into the prostate. Wildly different info about it online…
