Thanks Vernonkent for your reply. Were you offered the 5 treatment SBRT PBT? Did you say you had some minor side effects? I glad to hear Medicare covered the treatment, hopefully my tricare will cover the rest!

@cmartin65 No, for me, a 5 treatment regimen was not discussed. Side effects from the proton beam treat were not really noticeable. The side effects I noticed were the expected ones from Lupron. I think I experienced all of those. 😊
