The oncologist wanted to start treatment today but Ken wants to get a second opinion I am waiting for the cancer center of a big hospital to call me back to set up an appointment for a second opinion. His oncologist feels they will recommend the same treatment but we will at least be comfortable knowing that. For now he is scheduled to have his first treatment next wednesday. He will go every three weeks for 4-6 treatments and then a break and then start up again. Please keep Ken in your prayers he has a fight ahead of him. Thanks
Prayers still continue for Ken. I agree it's alway's best to get a second opinion.
I pray his PET Scan and Brain Scan are all clear as well.
Do you know if his PET Scan is the one that is combo of the CT/PET?
