Andy, I have not had any SE's that were troublesome to me. There is a loss of ejacualte (I have a little, but maybe 15% of what I had before), but this was easy to get used to for me. No problems with erections at all. The placment of the markers is sort of like the biopsy where there is blood is the semen and urine for a bit, but that clears up. I was put on Flomax before and during the procedure, but I really had no issues with flow previous to being diagnosed. I was put on a low fiber diet to keep myself cleaned out during the procedure, so I had some diareahha for a week or so, but that went away. I had some urgency to urinate right after the procedure, but that went away within a week. I never had any incontinence issues at all. Sex is "different", but still great, and orgasms are actually a little more intense.
Shoot me an email if you have any questions, and take a look at the thread that details my journey. It's in my signature block. Good luck on your journey. With your stats, SBRT or LDR are both great choices IMO.
