Thank you sir. I appreciate your response. The doctor told us today that they are "pretty sure" that it's pancreatic cancer. the report from March 7, 2016 said it was indicative of pancreatic cancer and they found a mass, but then his most recent biopsy said that there want any evidence of a mass?! How can that be?! I'm waiting for the oncologist to ask him what's that supposed to mean. Very upsetting and frustrating. <br />

Just remember doctors are not infallible and you should feel comfortable in<br />
challenging them. If they get offended they are not good doctors and find<br />
someone else. Don't be intimidated you and your father are the "customer".<br />

Hi. Thanks for caring to respond back. Well my dad went for the second opinion and they wasted more of his time, but think the same way the Cleveland Clinic does. So right now he's being treated locally and had his first chemo yesterday. I want him to go to the EuroMed Foundation, but insurances don't cover it because it uses the holistic medicine approach coupled with the chemo?<br />
