@jessie1990 Well, truthfully, the surgeon has not said for sure why he thinks I still have such pain lingering. My son was the one that got in touch with the specialist in NETs at the University hospital. He called them back yesterday and they have set up an appointment to see me on Dec. 1st. The doctor must have changed his mind. It is a totally different healthcare system, but my insurance will cover it. I sure hope he can give me some answers as to why I still have such pain. I also want to see if he will take over my case. If the other nodules start growing, I want a specialist in this type of cancer. I'm not sure what my original surgeon will think when he finds out. Everyone should be able to get a second opinion without being judged. Wish I had known about other options from the beginning. I'm sorry you still have pain and you are going through doubts too. 🙏🙏
