Good morning Ladies! Has anyone experienced bladder problems a year or longer after brachytherapy and if so what were your problems ?I'm getting a heavy watery discharge and I'm not sure if it's to do with the possible recurrence or whether some of it is due to a leaky bladder. Sometimes it feels as if it's my bladder and I never seem to have a full bladder but keep having to nip to the loo. 

Can anyone help? 

Thanks xx

  • Try not to worry too much. Sounds most likely to be a bladder infection, but I think  it's always important to get these things checked. Your GP surgery can check your urine on Monday morning, if you take a sample along, but I'd also get your CNS to check you out internally, as brachy can cause vaginal infections which would explain the increased discharge.
