Lots of news but we are no more enlightened than before.
Dr. Shah, the surgeon who did a second biopsy last week called to say she still does not have the results of the biopsy. She did say she had received info on the PET Scan which does not show where the primary cancer might be.
This said, they are referring Rob to a Pulmonary doctor (Lung specialist) who will coordinate a broncoscopy with the surgeon who will look into Rob's lungs and head and neck while he is asleep. Rob will meet the Pulmonologist tomorrow but doesn't yet know when the above mentioned test will take place.
Rob is also scheduled to meet with a Radiation Oncologist next week on Tuesday but we are not sure what that will mean since Rob continues to reiterate his decision not to have chemo or radiation. There was also talk of Rob having an MRI in hopes it might pinpoint where the primary cancer site is.
That's as much as we know at the moment. Thank you all for your continued prayers and notes of encouragement.
On a lighter note...we are leaving Friday afternoon to go camping with our daughter and son-in-law plus my sister and her significant other. They have RV's so we'll be camping side by side. We will be back late on Sunday and are really looking forward to a bit of down time.
Love to all,
Carol for Rob too
