My husband has been treated and monitored since January 2011 by Dr. Kwon at Mayo Rochester, and by several radiation oncologists there as well. Every single one of them repeats the statement "We can't treat what we can't see." I know it is frustrating to wait for something to show up, but it's probably better than taking a shot in the dark that might cause harm and do not good. Hang in there!

You are not getting the recommendations from the doctors you should really be speaking to. Dr. Kwon gives fantastic speeches, but he’s a urologist. Dr. Heath is at the same Mayo Clinic and is a fantastic GU oncologist that really knows what to do for the best treatment. You should try to get her to work on your case. There might be other options that haven’t been addressed.

I know that Doctor Kwon Frequently does work with Dr. Heath with his patients, So doing this would not be unusual.
