@mrcudel, long wait periods for treatment are stressful. But extended periods with no answers is unacceptable. If you would like to consider a second opinion at Mayo Clinic, you can request an appointment as an international patient. https://mayocl.in/1mtmR63
Note: your provincial health plan likely will not cover costs.
A cancer social worker may be able to help navigate appointments with you. It is hard to do this on your own, especially when you are dealing with difficult symptoms. Learn more from this article:

Can you ask for an appointment with an oncology social worker at the cancer centre where you were treated for lymphoma?
