Guest guest Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 My close friend is 49 (turns 50 next month) with Stage T2b prostate cancer, Gleason 6, PSA at diagnosis 10. Next week he travels to the Cancer Treatment Center in AZ to discuss Radation Treatment using " Calypso " , its the GPS guided with SMRT radation for his cancer. Has anyone had this type of treatment? Or CYBERKNIFE? His urologist here in San Diego wants to do a radical prostectomy, but he is not interested in surgery. HE was told that the risk of recurrence without removing it is 20%, but it may not recur until he is much older. > > Curious what others out there have been through and how they might have changed their decision now. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
