I too am early in my diagnosis. I am currently seeing a general practitioner and also a surgeon. Neither, from what I can tell are really familiar with MP. I have had two ct scans. The second was ordered by the surgeon. Since there was no signs of increase in size of the growths, we are on a wait and see mode with him. My GP has decided to get a second opinion. Waiting on the appt. I would suggest you attempt to find someone familiar with MP regardless to what letters are behind their name. That seems to be the challenge!

@bertbiz, Glad to hear of your progress. Sounds like you had some great doctors. Lymphoma was my concern as well. I was also concerned about mesentery blood vessels and blood flow to the intestines. Dr. Pardi at the Rochester Mayo Clinic went over my CT with me pointing out all that I had prayed for. No Lymphoma, no blood restriction, mild and not progressing. Plus I have gradually become asymptomatic. It was a concern of mine as well, whether they be able to tell if I had lymphoma or cancer. What a relief that was. None of my Doctors at home would even look at my CT.@bertz, thank you for sharing and I wish you continued improvement. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
