Hello @serenalux and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. First, let me say I am sorry to read that your mom and you are going through this. By the sounds of your explanation of her journey, I get a sense that you are not sure if what she was originally told for her prognosis is accurate, especially given that she seems to be reacting quite differently than you were prepped for.

Has she, or have you, considered getting a second opinion as an option?

It is something that my dad and I have considered but she is hesitant to reach out to any other doctors in her area.
Is it possible to set up a virtual appointment with doctors at the Mayo as she holds this as the standard for best care in the industry.
(She has been a nurse for over 30 years)
