Fiducial markers placed for Cyberknife
Diagnosed with Gleason 7 unfavorable intermediate on March 1; spent six weeks studying PC and current treatments including consults w/ 2 top rad. oncologists. (Skipped a 3rd opinion from a surgeon.) Decided without hesitation on Cyberknife, to be done by Dr. Trotter here in Seattle at Swedish.
Today the 4 gold markers were implanted by an R.N. The procedure was very easy, with light anesthesia. Released 5 hours ago and there's zero pain or other effects. MRI + mapping CAT on Friday; Orgovyx begins the 25th; then five-day Cyberknife begins the 27th.
