Petey,

I understand that you don't want to travel to Shands right now. Isn't there a good cnacer hospital in Tampa called Moffit. That's where davidcpa was treated and he says that they were terrific there. I know you don't have health insurance but most hospitals have social workers/programs and payment options. As far as biopsies go my first was negative and my second was positive. The only difference was two different ENT Surgeons/pathologists/hospitals.

You've got to fight this battle head on...
