Hi Anita.
My Mom finally got through to the GI Doc today and he affirms the protocol you stated, and thinks any local GI doc can simply remove it locally whenever it's time.
Gail, I hope you're right about the tinnitus!! It's driving me insane!!!! Still getting worse. Barry had fewer tx than me, I thought? Is that due to Toma service? I'm sorry about the thrush

Was he on heavy anti-biotics?
I have 9 radiation tx remaining according to my calculations. I hate to ask to confirm, but I think that's right.
