Need help with diet after a hemicolectomy....

The pretreatment tests now include a brain scan. This has pushed the treatment plan back to the 18th. The doctors should have a plan by then.

In the interim I am planning a second opinion. Not that I don’t trust the doctors but just to insure I have a full understanding of the options.

I believe this will give me confidence in knowing I going down the right path.

Blessings to all that are on this journey.

Hello @ce1b

It's great that you are going to seek a second opinion. You are right, it has nothing to do with not trusting your current medical team but instead finding out if there are other treatments available. Will you be seeking the second opinion from the same hospital system or will be seek this second opinion from another medical system?

Recently, another member (@sally0526) posted about a second opinion and she was very pleased with the new information she received. Here is a link to her post about that, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/756719,

Perhaps she will join in this conversation and share more with you.

Will you post again, as it is convenient, with a follow up?
