Thanks, Janner. They have not given us a stage. We thought that would be told to us after the surgery and biopsy. I hope you are right that we are jumping the gun. I will be happy to kill a fly with a sledgehammar if that's how it turns out.
My Mom moved and that is part of why we are looking for someone new. We have no experience with this. I am also very concerned with a couple of places on her back. One of these itched her for a year and she was told by her Nurse Practitioner to get it looked at but she never did.
We do have a copy of her pathology report and we sent it to the new doctors we have appointments with so we should know more after talking to them.
I want to be sure that the doctor who does her surgery is good. I think other patients are often the best sources of information on these things.
Thanks for your help.
Michelle
