    Steve may be gone
    Hey Mrdezzy,

    Welcome to the forum ... sorry you have to be here.

    I haven't seen ATLsteve post, beyond this thread ... he may not be an active member.

    Based on what appear to be very good numbers, you would appear to be a very good candidate for just about any kind of treatment. You may also want to consider Active Surveillance. From the recent articles that I have read, AS may be the way to go for many low grade "indolent" Prostate Cancers.

    Sorry, I do not know much about ProstRicision; however, I am sure that other members will be able to answer your questions.

    Good luck in your fight against PCa.

    I talked with ProstRicision
    I talked with ProstRicision when I was investigating my treatment options and from my perspective, I did not like their “commercializing” aspect to their treatment center (billboards all over Atlanta) and “guarantee” outcome (like a sliding scale of your outcome) …It seemed to me that they were just looking for “perfect” candidates that would raise their advertised “success rate” ….Again, this is my perspective…

    I would suggest that Mrdezzy start a new "topic" as this one is almost 4 years old....Best to all

    Watch out for the snake oil salesmen
    Well it is nice to know a professional feels the same way I did….What is more interesting in this clip is that the MD states that there is no medical proof that one radiation treatment is less damaging than another…something I thought as well when I was selecting my treatment choice….Thanks for posting
