@dwin100037, just checking in. Did you get clarity on you mother's diagnosis from the conference call with the physician team? Does your mom have cancer?

My mom had an appt today with her oncologist now he is telling her she may have brain cancer .... he is sending her for an emergency MRI tomorrow...why would a physician put that out there before he even has information to back that up..... I'm really not understanding how this works I guess PET scan shows one spot on lung, biopsy showed all benign prior to scan. Now brain cancer? It is possible to have brain cancer and a 2.5cm mass in your lung without it being other places in your body?

I spoke with physician and she stated this time that the biopsy was non-diagnostic when before she said absolutely benign. Doctor is stating she is a stage 1. I requested a referral for a 2nd opinion from Markey Cancer Center. So that is our next step before making any further decisions.
