Well, it is cancer. frown I am going to post on the diagnosis bored for some additional help. Thanks.

I go tomorrow for xrays, and blood work I think. Then a follow-up visit with the doctor on Thursday. What questions should I be asking. The biopsy just showed stage 1, so they are hopeful that it has not spread.
