@dean007 and @85lowrider

I had a PSA of 11. After much research, a Gleason of 3+4 and a low risk Decipher test, I decided on an mri guided radiation machine, the MRIdian. 2 mm margins vs 3-5 mm for other forms of radiation, and potential side effects was a priority for me. I did have spaceoar inserted. I had 5 treatments and finished in February of 2023. Slight restricted urination after my third treatment which went away overnight after taking Flomax. No pain, bleeding or issues to this day. I was treated by a Center of excellence trained radiation oncologist.
