Did you look into Proton therapy? (I have no experience myself. I am just a ramdom person asking a question.) I heard Medicare pays for Proton. There are 2 places you might be able to reach: Loma Linda University, and UC San Diego.

I've looked into pretty much everything. Radiation (including proton) and surgery are covered by Medicare. But it looks to me that the side effects are for those solutions compared to Tulsa are worse. One can get lucky with any procedure and not have side effects, but it appears the odds are better with Tulsa, plus no cutting and no radiation.
