11/19/24 I went to OKC for my TULSA PRO procedure. There is a new modern facility called Hope Lodge where cancer patients can stay for free. It is an amazing place to stay operated by the American Cancer Society. I arrived 11/17 and prepped with laxatives on 11/18. Arrived at the MRI imaging facility, at noon, where the Dr. performed his magic. It took 4 hours and Dr. Stratton told my girl friend that he got all the cancer. He showed her the before and after images and it was clear. I got meds. that I haven't needed except for the antibiotics. We drove the 4 hr. drive home the following morning. I have a catheter that is working like it should. My hips are the only pain. I'm guessing from laying in the MRI machine for 4 hrs. No prostate pain. No bladder spasms. No nausea. I return in two weeks to have the catheter removed. I had to pay $33,000 out of pocket but it is worth it. I sold two classic cars to finance the procedure. I was a good candidate for TULSA. If you are a candidate for TULSA I strongly suggest you check it out. The local urologists offered only radical surgery or beam radiation as my options.
