Need Help With Asking PCP Again for a Referral to a Specialist

@sunflower. Like your idea of the pros/cons method of deciding about medication, but I may adopt it for some other medical decisions I have to make. My onc just stood up for me. While the surgeon wanted to do a big surgery immediately based on little information, and used fear as a motivator, my onc has quietly ordered a whole slew of tests to get me enough information so that my decision will be based on fact, not fear. Bless him for understanding.

@trishanna, Yes to your oncologist! He sounds like a real keeper. Your post is heartening to read because fear tactics should never be used but sometimes are.

Amen! Good onc!!!!! Yay! I wish you all the best and yes, that tool can be used in a lot of different life situations. Business people, managers, you name it. Take good care and keep us posted. I'm not on very much but will be upholding you in prayer. Wishing you many blessings and warmest everything, Sunnyflower
