You just never know what different facilities, doctors, countries will go by with medical guidelines. They could be using brand new unreleased data or the physician and treatment facility could be stuck in the 90s with little updated knowledge. Yes, far too many questions for the average person without a medical background to remember, ask the correct medical pro and get answers to. We all just do the best we can with finding the best care and putting our faith in those capable hands.
Best wishes with everything!!!
