Hi everyone. So I went and saw another doctor today and they made me feel much more reassured about the prognosis. My question is what would you recommend I do? This doctor wants to give me a PET scan and an MRI to find out how invasive the cancer is to make sure that the surgeon has a better idea of what he should be doing. This will push out the surgery date for another 1 to 2 weeks . The doctor I saw on Wednesday, however, wants to do the surgery on Monday without doing any additional testing. I have no idea what to do but I know time is of the essence. What would you recommend? Any info would be very much appreciated!
