Hi @padovani, welcome to Connect.
I don't recall any members talking about proton beam therapy specifically related to liver cancer. However several have mentioned it in the Brain Tumor group as well as related to prostate cancer and other cancers. @cayandray and @sheilazejdlik shared their experiences in these 2 discussions:
- Proton Therapy travel and recommendation https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/proton-therapy-travel-and-recommendation/
- My experience with proton beam therapy & breast cancer https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/breast-cancer-diagnosis-in-february-2016/

Additionally, you can connect with @gene1234 @japv2001 @tinasantos and others talking about liver cancer here:

Padovani, are you getting proton beam alone or along with other treatments like surgery, chemo or immunotherapy?

Just proton - start today - excited, nervous, love my team, grateful

Collen - thanks for the recommendations. I think I have joined the HCC group but can't figure out how to create a new post so I can share my positive Mayo experience on that topic. Can you help? padovani
