SBRT sounds like a good treatment approach. For myself I looked at many options short listed HIFU and FLA and chose focal laser ablation. I had 2 treatments one in 2014 and one 2018. The treatments were significantly less invasive then radiation.
Hi Dan, (I hope it's Dan) Thanks for sharing your journey with pc. I'm 65 and I'm have the same feelings as you do about surgery if I was younger. I do'nt have to take Lupron as my doctors thinks I'm in the favorable intermediate stage of pc. I'm leaning towards SBRT/PRT as I hopefully to start treatment in September. Hopefully we can share our positive results on this site later this year. Best of luck. Dave
