Tulsa Pro - my initial treatment experience

3 month update

My PSA went from max just over 16 at final biopsy at Mayo to 3.00 now at 3 months out from Tulsa Pro. Hopefully that is fine for what was removed which was somewhere like 2/3 to 3/4 of prostate with a lot of BPH. No ED or incontinence.

I stopped all alpha blocker/Flomax at 2 months and now at 3 months I have better flow than last few years leading up to Tulsa Pro.

Dear bjroc...may I ask about how much out-of-pocket expense was the Tulsa Pro procedure? I am 70, have Gleason 3+3, low decipher score of .12, some BPH symptoms. I am reluctant to take the 5 Alpha-Reductase inhibitors ( Flomax,etc)due to potential negative side-effects. I may be interested in Tulsa Pro if I knew about how much the cost is, as I understand Medicare or Medicare Supplement policies do not pay for this procedure. Also, do you know where they perform this service, and would you recommend a qualified provider or clinic? Many Thanks from another member of the Brotherhood of Prostate Cancer Members! kugrad1975.
