I haven't investigated PBT yet. Any good sources that you can point me to on this?

My oncologist told me after he heard of my recurrence that he called a lot of his buddies about my case. Would they or would they not have radiated that area? They came back about 50-50. Interesting, but what can I say now? Oops?

I guess it's more evidence for me at this point to recommend folks in the future going to a comprehensive cancer center. They should have a lot more body of knowledge than others since they see and treat so many more patients...
