Bruce, don't consider BS at all. Sounds like you keep up to date on PSA information and treatments. I think I see above you put a ? for UFPTI.

In Jacksonville Florida UFPTI is University of Florida Proton Therapy Institute. It is a huge modern treatment facility using proton radiaton. Has 5 different gantries and all have been udated to latest technology. They have been doing proton radiation treatments since 2006 and paitents from every state and I think over 50 countries have come there. I went there because Mayo Jacksonville (I live close to) does not have proton radiation just photon but are building a new cancer center that will have proton.

That EPIC system is great for doctors to be able to see records and tests.
Take care and good luck!

Thanks for the update on that acronym. I don’t even know what type RT I received last year. I eat mushrooms 4-5x/ week to help keep my PSA down. Lol. Let ya go for now. We can talk later as this disease keeps people chatting, comparing notes daily. Bruce
