[quote=Kelly211]Colette,
Where are you being treated? I live in Michigan on the west side of the state. I am currently being treated at U of M as they are tops here in Michigan. [/quote]
Hi Kelly!  I am currently being treated in Central Michigan. If, however, this does turn out to be cancer, I will not continue here. I will go...somewhere else.  I looked at U of M, but it appears they don't take my insurance, although I may be able to get my insurance switched in order to be treated there (we're on Medicaid, but the plan I am on isn't listed on their website of accepted insurance plans).  Hopefully, it's a non issue.  That would be nice.  
As for having someone to go with me, I plan on taking someone.  It is possible that my husband will be at work, but I think my sister in law/best friend will be able to go with me.  Cancer or not, Eugene has got to go.  And I think I may not be too excited about ANY treatment plan, regardless of the diagnosis.  Getting rid of it, YES, super excited for that, but the actual process--not so much.
