Can Brachy be done if I've had a previous TURP? I have heard different opinions on this.

Stew, it really depends on the extent of tissue removed. When I consulted my first RO, he told me that because I’d had Green Light Laser, the middle of my prostate was hollowed out and he couldn’t place seeds - they would basically have nothing to anchor to.
It was the Median Lobe that got lasered, probably the same one targeted in a TURP.
