Wow, thanks Gloria! I never thought to just check with a PCP. I have to find one being new to this area. That is great advice and I will follow it. I am new to New Mexico and getting used to the new insurance and having to find doctors. I will follow your advice. The oncologist is really great but I am WAY TOO paranoid to wait six months.
Thank you so much for your response.
