Starting Proton Treatments for Prostate Cancer: Any experiences?

Anybody who got the proton treatments in 2022 and 2021 have any updates to share?

My partner has prostate cancer, PSA 11, then 14, then 10 and Gleason 6. He started taking climax, then changed to pumpkin seeds and walnuts. His PSA went down from 14 to 10. Very seriously considering proton therapy.

I will have completed my 20th treatment on May 16. No SpaceOAR gel used. Some minor side effects which were expected. Treatment time is around 15-20 minutes.
Hmm...pumpkin seeds and walnuts? I do take 2 Amygdalin- 100mg tabs per day ( aka, vit. B17).
