I pushed for it and the team was in agreement based upon my history. It will be minimally invasive and they can do a full biopsy. The doctor explained it could be head and neck mets, a weird breast cancer, lymphoma or nothing at all. Sunderwood, I had failed margins previously and I am holding my own after treatment, so don't give give up the ship!
