How this treatment impacted my life the most

The effects of the treatment have not impacted me much although the actual course of radiotherapy required me to empty bladder then drink a large amount of water in short time resulting in desperate need to go to the loo. I have had very few of the expected side effects and consider myself to be VERY fortunate, The main negative about this treatment, for me, was the feeling of tiredness/fatigue,

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

In view of the rather minor side effects (for me at least) the benefits seem to far outweigh the negatives.
