Re: Met with the HIPEC guys today

And I'm still left wondering what I should do... ....and I'm the ONLY one he's ever seen with a single met. The other two he said had Carcinomatosis, so, the FIRST one he saw with Carcinomatosis would also have been the "ONLY one he's ever seen"..at that point in time, right ?? undergo HI...
