I decided to see MDACC for a second opinon as original Doc was concerned with one of my lymph nodes from review of CAT scan. MDACC review of PetScan (taken late Oct) and CAT scan done at MDACC (early Nov), did not share concern on lymph node but has concern with a "spot" near the original surgery site (May 04). The MDACC Doc wants me back in early Jan for another CAT, and and is not recommending other treatments at this time. So the second opinion was worthwhile, however the divergence in opinion is somewhat disconcerting. Certainly will be going back in Jan. Note that neither Doc has opted for radiation at this juncture.

Best regards,

John
