I was recently diagnosed. Low PSA of 3 or 3.7 depending on lab and a rise in year of 0.7 from 2.3 or 3 depending on lab.

My Gleason of 10 not good. 3 positive biopsies out of 12 all on left side.

I am considering robotic RP or the hyperthermia plus radiation.Has anybody out there been treate with hyperthermia plus radiation or know anybody that has and any results??? Sad

Many thanks
Bob

Hi bobstan,

I am sorry that you have cancer! I have no information about hyperthermia treatment. I have heard about lasers being used on cancers. You might want to take a look and that thread under Complimentary and Alternative Medicine if you think the two are the same thing.

Best wishes with your treatment.
