David,
Yes. Like 25 different strains and they were all negative.

I think I have more info about what they are looking at me for: Paxitaxil: which is a sytemic chemotherapy agent that they use at somewhat lower doses than in standard chemotherapy along with a coctail of the newer radioenhansing drugs.

As before ANY info will be helpful as I have to decide on wether to hold up on the surg tomorrow at the latest.
