MEETING WITH THE SURGEON

So here we go another update. I met with the surgeon at Mayo Clinic today. His name is Dr. Richard Gray. I was so impressed with him. He spent over an hour with us answering all our questions and going over everything piece by piece. It was very helpful. He concurred with everything my oncologist has been doing. He also is very suspicious of the spine and requested that his radiologists look at all my films and determine whether I need another biopsy in the spine or not. Also I am going tomorrow to get another US of my breast. There is another spot that he wants to confirm whether or not it is malignant.The reason for this is if it is malignant then I will have to get a masectomy. If it is not then I can have the choice of a masectomy or a lumpectomy. So we will see. More tests, yeah. I must say it is getting exhausting. Dr. Cavalcant called tonight and told me that he was very excited that Dr. Gray is on the case. He said it will be good to have the teamwork. I truely believe I am in as good of hands as possible.
