Hello. I am 5 years removed from Brachy. I can tell you what you are experiencing was normal for me. Worse yet is that it felt like I was urinating razor blades while urinating 30 times a day. I eventually got better in frequency, but it took months for the frequency and the pain was
15 months! Ask the urologist for Vesicare as it may help with the frequency. I was almost ready to give up in my situation, but the doc kept telling me it will get better. It eventually did. I still take the Vesicare and flowmax and I have had a steady psa at .2 for about a year and a half. Best I cam ask for. Finally my urologist told me to take the flowmax early in the evening late afternoon.
