So sorry for your diagnosis, alisam. But -- welcome!

Living in a remote part of Virginia, with few medical resources, I haven't sought a second opinion.

It's essential to understand what's going on, though, so you can make the best treatment decisions. A good care team makes all the difference.

Hope someone from CA will chime in about UCSF.

@janemc I just looked it up and the Mayo clinic also offers 2nd opinions. I will look into that also. Nice to know we have options.

Here is what it says on their website... "The Mayo Clinic offers second opinions through various methods, including in-person visits, video consultations, phone calls, and virtual visits. Patients can self-refer or have their current doctor submit a referral to get a second opinion on a diagnosis, treatment plan, or for complex conditions.
