Gino,
My question was directed at forum members, not the general population. I have been here 3.5 years and I can be "fairly sure" on the answer. It was kind of a rhetorical question because I felt that some people were guiding you to not getting radiation. I felt, and still do, that you need the 2nd opinion ASAP. That is all. One way or the other, it is of no matter to me. It would be nice to avoid radiation, but not if you need it. My concern is that the decision is based on proper medical guidance, not the decision itself.
Best of luck,
Glenn
