HiColleen yes Friday. Good visit with surgeon, looking to be at Rochester early Wednesday for biopsy of pleura, said to be “studded” with mesothelioma areas, but so far not gone beyond the pleura. He will drain again and install a catheter so I can do that at home. However, the ultrasound guided needle drain shows a few pockets of fluid, so it’s complicated now. I will reply here once I have consulted with dr on that matter, not finding that on the drain/scan summary, done by a different person at Mayo. If it proceeds, have to await the outcome of the biopsy before further plans. I am getting maximum support from family and PCP. VERY encouraged being in the care of Mayo personnel, thanks for addressing my plight
