So in eight days the procedure was approved. So next step is I head down on October 4th to get my SpaceOAR and my Fiducial Marker Seeds. The SpaceOAR is a barrier between my prostate and my rectum that blocks radiation, and the Seeds are the crosshairs so they can line up the Proton Gun and hit the prostate the same way every time.
I will then return on the 7th or 8th for my simulation, where we walk through the entire process, and I find out what time my treatments will be and for what duration (most likely 28 days)
So great news, and another step in getting cured.
