Since the lung is showing progression I would get a second opinion right away. Certainly waiting 2 months is too long.
Go to the best facility you that will accept your case. Get all your documentation together, organized, and copies ready to send.
MD Anderson is one of the best and is in Texas so not too far. There are some well known places in Florida. Memorial Sloane Kettering and Johns Hopkins are very good. Check the list Christine has posted. Good luck.
