So although we were told by oncologist at Sloane Kettering she doesn't think its cancer and they didn't light up, I am the type that likes to plan for the what if. I want to know what the options are. I want to be armed with questions and knowledge of when next scan we are told ...guess what it's mets. So I would rather be prepared.
We have only dealt with a few liver spots here and there and never anywhere else so lung is new territory for us/me. It would also mean we are no longer going for a cure but it is what it is. So please don't think I am being negative...just prepared
Questions
1. What removal options are there? I hear vats, sbrt, ablation, some laser thing in Germany, etc. what types of things are out there?
2. In what scenarios would these removal options be used?
3. I see several people being treated by Mskcc have gone elsewhere for lung mets, why? What couldn't mskcc do?
4. Any other info
Thank you!
Lisa
