Bill...
Sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
It's a big curvy journey but the above advice is all very good. Take notes when talking to your doctors. Prepare questions before appointments. Ask for clarification when you are not sure and don't understand.
As for second opinions...get all the opinions you need and go with the one that makes you the most comfortable. Unfortunatly there are no golden bullets in cancer therapy....but your gut and heart felt feelings count, listen to them.
Remember, the only stupid question is the one you don't ask.

I'm pullin for you.
E-mail me anytime.

Mike
