I'm at a loss here. I had two ENT's. first is the one I've been going to since 2011, (first dx) through my HMO and second the ENT surgeon who performed my TORS. now that treatment is over, I'm basically going back to my HMO ENT. However the surgeon said to get a PET in 3 months, my ENT said he doesn't want a false positive and to wait 6 months, and i need an endoscopy every month. When I look at people's signature lines it looks like most people get their first scan in 3 months. And an endoscopy EVERY month??? Is that the norm? In 2011 he was giving them to me very 2 months.?? He said he will go with what I want. I just want the norm....
....thanks...
