Hello,

I’m one of the 70 cases preformed in St. Louis if you’re talking about SLU/SSM. I got the same caution about cancer possibly returning. My thinking was if it returns I’ll look into radiation or surgery, but the relative ease of TULSA PRO made it a no brainer in my mind. I’m 69 so there was no issue with coverage from my insurance company. In fact, to my surprise, the procedure did not require pre approval.

I had a G7 (4+3), cribform and 17 out of 20 samples from my prostate had cancer. The cancer had started to encroach into my bladder space, but the prostate sac was still intact. I had planned to undergo radiation with a previous doctor, but found TULSA PRO a week before the placement of gold seeds in my prostate for radiation treatments.

Good luck with your decision.
