@jeffmarc Hello Jeff - sometimes these posts confuse me. Contributor "surfohealth" asked for help/advice on types of radiation, etc. Your two separate responses seem to convey that you know that he has "not" had a radical prostatectomy, yet I assumed that he had because he refers to "salvage" radiation. Everything I have read about "salvage" radiation is about and for men who have had the radical prostatectomy, and have seen their cancer return...so now it is time for the next phase of treatment: "salvage radiation." Your answers are both good, but I wonder if "surfohealth" has had the radical prostatectomy or not? I have posed the question directly to him. What were your thoughts/assumptions on this when you offered your answers?
