Has the cancer spread beyond your prostate? If not IMRT is only one of multiple radiation treatments that you should be considering. Find yourself another radiation oncologist. If you have a mayo clinic in your neighborhood, you should definitely consider going there instead of the doctor you are seeing now.
If it has spread beyond the prostate, then a combination of IMRT and SBRT is frequently used and reduces the number of visits.

PSMA shows no spread beyond the prostate, so I'm looking at all the options. RP is straight forward, it's the radiation treatments I'm having trouble with, there are too many! Definitely will speak to more ROs. Have been in contact with UFHPTI and Moffitt, and will contact UM and Mayo Jax. Am also considering focal treatments, but that's another ball of wax.
