Going for Tulsa Pro Jan. 7th

In April, 2024 I had the Tulsa procedure at Mayo Jax. I will be 80 on my next birthday but was considered younger by "effective" age and the care group voted to go forward when most surgery after 72 or so was the line. After active surveillance, they decided not to wait in that I also have Lymphoma and Leukemia issues. I had no side effects and the catheter for 2 weeks with few issues other than the inconvenience. I returned for the first followup in October with good results pertinent to PSA and MRI. I have been reluctant to in effect "promote" due to differences in our choices and health overall, but I am so happy with my choice. I read everything I could find prior, had discussions with trusted and informed sources.
