Im sorry you are upset. OCF is made up of fellow patients and caregivers, not physicians or medical professionals. Its not possible for any one of us to second guess what happened with your biopsy/mass removal. Hopefully it turns out to be non cancerous. The best advice I can give you is to find the best medical professionals you can and put your trust in their hands. When going thru this or any major medical treatments its always a good idea to get a second opinion. Seeking out a top cancer center will also help you to avoid your situation of wondering if things were done correctly. I really hope you do not need our services and your biopsy is negative.
Best wishes with your recovery.
