Radiation Effects -&gt; Long term scarring and tissue damage. Charlie.... I, too, am interested in what course of treatment your dad has had...my mom is currently is going through radiation, and chemo once a week. She previously had chemo every 3 weeks for 3 days in a row. Right now she is hospitalized due to the effects and basically getting sick. What type of symptoms did your dad have? Besides the scar tissue that was noticed during the bladder removal surgery, did he ever complain about abdominal pain, or pain in the intestine?
