I have no idea where Morgantown, WVA is, but it doesn't sound like it has a major Comprehensive Cancer Center. Are you being treated at CCC center with a full cancer board? If not, I would go the one closest to you for a primary opinion and then maybe to one of the best for a second opinion. It sounds like your cancer is extensive and you need the best treatment center available.
Take care,
Eileen
