Is your NP your primary provider? I am a Family Nurse Practitioner and when I got lab results it reassured me when my collaborating physician said "well if you're gonna get one it's a good one to get" I really try to keep that in mind! I spent time in the Gulf War and did see an outside hematologist/oncologist then completed all the necessary paperwork to apply for VA benefits since CLL is on the short list for service in the Middle East. I am going and have a long list of questions and requests, one being how can I see CLL specialist. I refuse to wait I firmly believe in making changes so I can do my best to delay and I feel I need a care team not just my PCP. It makes sense to just be reassured if nothing else!
