@barbarawolos Your appointment is only a few days away. Is Roswell Park in Buffalo, NY? I looked it up and it's National Cancer Institute designated which I recommend to anyone here asking for ideas about where to get treatment.

That's good that you won't have to wait very long to see the oncologist. I'd like to share that I've had similar experiences with doctors who did not listen to me. We women know our bodies best and we know when something isn't right. I'm relieved to hear that you were persistent and found a doctor who listened to you and followed up.

It's difficult and stressful to go through these appointments and with that I don't always "hear" what the doctor is telling me. I also forget questions I was going to ask and so I write questions down in a notebook to take with me to the appointment. My partner came to all of my appointments with me. Will you take someone with you to your appointment? Your spouse, partner, friend?

Will you please come back here and let me know how your appointment goes?
