Thank you, Fuller, for starting this website and for your answers
to the questions about the various proton beam sites. And thank you,
Laurel, for adding to our information about the balloons. This group
is such a wealth of knowledge. Also, thanks Rick for giving us the
link to your blog; there's a wealth of knowledge there too.
Don was diagnosed just one month ago. It was his 3rd biopsy and
obviously the others (2003 and 2005)were negative. This time, 1/12
cores was positive, PSA 4.2, 3+3+6, T1C. Don initially explored
robotic surgery, but we joined several online support groups and have
learned about many other alternatives. Don is planning to try to get
a consultation at Loma Linda. If this is not possible, he will
consider the other proton centers; this is why he is asking so many
questions about comparisons between them.
Rick, I see from your blog that you had treatment in Indiana.
Can you please answer the questions that Fuller answered as they
pertain to the center in Indiana? Thanks.
Sharon and Don from PA
