My experience with Proton Therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer is that there have been NO side effects during or following treatment.

There have been no continence or bowel control problems and no erectile function effects. No pain or discomfort at any time. During treatment, [PHI Redacted] needed no "Care Giver" at any time.

Following the proton treatment there was no recovery time and [PHI Redacted] was 100% ready to resume normal activities the day returned from treatment.

I don''t think other therapies can begin to compete with Proton Therapy''s lack of adverse impact on the patient''s life during or after treatment.
