Salvage Cryoablation

So..my UroOnc wants to pursue cryoablation after my failed radiotherapy (EBRT/LDR Brachytherapy ). I don't know yet if I can have focal only cryo or have to have whole prostate ablation. I know the ED outcome is bad, but has anyone else had this treatment and how are you doing afterward? Any other after treatment problems?

Thanks!
