Proton Radiation Beam Therapy...

Just to let you all know:

Was diagnosed with prostate cancer in June '20

Mayo Clinic- Proton Beam Radiation Therapy, 20 treatments during a month stay... Nov/Dec '20

Maintained full control of excretory functions, to this day... Never a need for a diaper...

Jan '21 erectile function...

April '21 regained penile erection/ejaculated function...

Today is like nothing ever happened...

Strongly recommend this treatment which is also covered by Medicare...

  1. Did you have only proton beam therapy? When did you receive the treatment? I'm confused about the timeline for erections. I had radiation with ADT and was sexually functional the entire time. Intentionally so.

    1. Just curious, what your Grade of PC was, it must have been fairly low if you were able to use the beads
