Welcome to OCF! Im very sorry about your recent diagnosis!!!

At this time of uncertainly, its not easy knowing what to do next. The pandemic has got to be making a tremendous impact on all cancer patients world-wide! Since you are waiting to get started, might as well make the most use of the time, If you havent yet gone for a second opinion, now might be a good time to look into it. For US patients, a comprehensive cancer center (CCC) is the best place with the top oncology doctors in the country. A team based approach ensures all specialists stay on the same page. Patients are able to attend their tumor board meetings where they can participate and have an opportunity to ask and learn about their treatment plan.

Best wishes with everything!!!
