upset caregiver: what do these results mean?

We went to the lung specialist and found out it wasn't about whether or not he had cancer. It was about if the biosopy could be done. To find out what type of cancer he Has and what the best treatment for it. The lung specialist strongly suggested it was from his previous cancer. The throat cancer usually does metalize in this amount time. I asked if he could tell us how long he has it. He looked at his ct scan in Jan.,that scan was clean. Also lung cancer doesn't appear that fast. After looking at his present scan, he couldn't safely do a biosopy.

The dr got in touch with another dr who could do the biosopy using broncoscope. A 5 hr.procefure. we are currently waiting to find out when. The Biosopy hasn't been done. I did not say it was done. Please re read that message. I couldn't finish as I ran out of time.

@scared2 Well, it sounds like you don’t really have any more information now than before the “biopsy.” Did you get any helpful info at all? It could be a metastasis o his earlier cancer and not a new one, but you just don’t know. Was your husband present at this meeting? We’ll just keep @merpreb ’s good thought with us, as she goes thru the hurricane. She’ll answer when she can.
Did the doctor suggest a plan of care or what could be done now?
