Radiation Proctitis - Help!

Subject: Radiation Proctitis - HELP!
Date: 12/02/2007
It seems like I might finally have an answer to the problems  I have been experiencing since my radiation therapy.  I went to my family doctor yesterday and she has referred me to a gastroenterologist for possible radiation proctitis.  Has anyone had this?  Do you know what the testing and treaments are like?  Are they usually successful in curing the problem?   I feel so frustrated b/c it just seems like one thing after another and I can't just get better.  My cancer is in remission though, so that is great news.  I worry that this rectal bleeding is colon cancer (metastatic) rather than proctitis...HELP!
