Hi @kdimmerman,
So sorry to hear about your situation. Please use the contact information to request a second opinion from Mayo Clinic http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63. Calling the numbers at the location of your choice is the most efficient way to get a referral.

I'm also tagging @cynaburst @neffjsn @travelgirl @audrapopp @dmedina71 on this conversation. You're not alone.

I am not sure where in the U.S. you are located, but I agree with your instinct to get a second opinion. I would call Mayo and any other major cancer center that you could travel to: Dana Farber in Boston, M.D. Anderson in Houston, Sloan Kettering in NYC are others you might try. Best of luck to you. I think that if you call and explain the urgency of your situation, you will be able to send your scans and schedule an appt. pretty quickly.
