Take all the advice above. I truly believe in Cancer Center's please get yourself to one. They may do things differently they have the latest in technology.
I never knew anything about Cancer Centers I was going from Doctor to Doctor,an ENT Surgeon and a Radiation Oncologist. My favorite of all the RO who suggested I needed a Cancer Center I took his advice and am so glad I did.
As far as your family you need to be up-front with them I'm sure they'll help you through it.
Take care, keep us posted.
