Update #3

Last week I had a scare. For a couple of weeks before that I had some pelvic discomfort, sharp jabs, low level localized pain. Since I still suffer from sudden urges to urinate, I thought that my problem was bladder related. But then last week I started to have a pinkish discharge, almost the kind I had before the onset of spottings.

I immediately set up an appointment with the oncologist and went to see him a few days later. He examined me VERY thoroughly -- front, back (for a couple of days I was sore during BMs :)) but luckily he concluded that all he found was a mild inflammation at the end of the vagina, in the area that was affected by the radiation. He said that this is not uncommon, it can show up even months after the treatment. He seems to have been right, the symptoms are slowly receding...
