MEMO,
1."It's not cancer until the biopsy says so"
2. Search this forum for "statistics" and you will see that the %'s are more scary than accurate predictors as each individual case is just thaty - individual.
3. Relax because until you know for sure there what is going on is nothing other than praying that you can do now. Once you have an answer you will either be relieved of the need to search further or you will have a direction for your search.
4. If you have the time, sample the various posts on this forum and many questions you have will be answered before you can ask them.
5. Positive research you could do would be to get information on treatment facilities. Check the main website for Comprehensive Cancer Centers and links to other useful sites. Be aware that some facilities or doctors are better than others in specific areas. Also search for NJ and NY on this site as some of the posters can give you advice about specific doctors.
6. You can click on anyone's profile for information on how to contact them if you have specific questions.

Best wishes and my prayers for a good outcome,
Malka
