Please go to MD Anderson in Houston. Try to see Dr Renata Ferraro, her specialty and research is in ACC. I went two weeks ago and got lab work, CT scan plus saw her in the same day, my first visit there. Also she called in two different research PhDs to start studying me. I also had a MRI. There is a hotel connected to the hospital and right at her office, lab, imaging center, just walk across skywalk. Hotel is the Rotary House, cost $146 a night. My ACC has moved to my lungs, stage 4. Bless you, thoughts and prayers are sent to you

I’m sorry to hear that it is in your lungs now. I had my surgery at MDA in 2022 and have been trying to get treatment near my home but unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a doctor with any experience with ACC and I also have the NOTCH1 mutation so it is more aggressive and I can’t even get them to do scans. I have a new lump in my throat and ct From another doctor shows spots in my lungs 7 months ago but they won’t do another scan. I really can’t afford to go back to MDA. I’m just trying to figure out what to do.
