birad 3 again?

I got 4 opinions when I had cancer. The 4th doctor listened to every concern and addressed each with new testing, most of it repeat testing. The other three were dismissive (but nice about it). I hope you find an oncologist who listens to your concerns and addresses them to your satisfaction.

That must have been so frustrating to have to get so many different opinions before getting the correct diagnosis. I think my option now is to go back to my family doctor. He's been my doctor for about 18 years now and i have a pretty good relationship with him - he too can be very dismissive at times but i can call him out on it. He may not agree with a referral elsewhere but if it will make me feel better or give me peace of mind, he'd probably be willing to do it.
