It is very hard for me to trust my Drs. They have assured me that they have each reviewed my scans and xrays, and that there is nothing else. I have such a fear of getting this again in a few years and it is worse and is has spread, because a Dr. forgot to read the slides.
So, because I live in Boston and because we pay a lot of money each month to health insurance I am getting a second opionon. The ocologist said, Why not?, if you have the time and the insurance, it can;t hurt. The ENT Dr. said, Why? you have a little thing, don't panic your life.
What would you do? Am I making something more of this that it really is, or I am playing it safe and making sure that it is not really a big deal... maybe I just like Drs. sticking a tube up my nose and down my throat...

Hi Carolyn,
I haven't long started a blog myself; today I was fiddling around and came across your blog.
I had breast cancer five years ago and I can see myself reflected in your words when I was first diagnosed.
I chose this particular post just to say: Absolutely do what you have to do to ease your mind and if that means getting more opinions go for it!
Blessings to you and may your recovery be swift.
Love,
Suzi
