Petey, This is a case where I think you need to make a stink. You need concurrent chemo and radiation and you need to see the medical oncologist NOW because your radiation is starting now. Since for many cancers, chemo doesn't happen at the same time as radiation, it's quite possible that whoever you spoke to on the phone at the MO's office didn't understand the urgency of this. Call the RO back, call the MO back and keep demanding to talk to someone, and demand that they talk to each other, until this gets solved. It's important that the chemo starts weakening those cancer cells as soon as the radiation starts. It will not be so effective 10 days after the radiation starts.

I understand how hard it is to have all this legal stuff going on on top of everything but your treatment needs to be the most important thing right now.
