@dandl48 I am currently pissing off my Dr. by questioning the reasoning for NOT doing anything immediately now that it has been confirmed I have BE at the lowest level.
I feel like I have the alien baby in my chest, we know it’s there, but I take a medication to pretend it’s NOT there….wait and see if it (what?? If nothing done) or if it decides now is the time to BURST out of my chest!!
Doesn’t help that I am a retired PA and can discuss this at a level her average patient cannot, although I have admitted this type of medicine is not my forte. My background is ER, ICU, emergency fix ‘em and turf ‘em medicine, but my ability to understand and LEARN this (and consequently question insurance based treatment protocols) is apparently a bit threatening.
Can anyone explain WHY if we know the alien baby is there, why not go after it now with an immediate ablation of the non-cancerous cells BEFORE giving them time to grow and mutate further??? Dr only says “it’s not protocol and no one would do the ablation for you now”……
