Hi Missy,
I imagine this must be very stressful, and I wish I had specific advice for you. However, I can only say that it seems very strange that a Doctor would declare you Stage IV, all based on a spot that is no longer there. I would look for another opinion on your situation.
Good luck with everything,
Jen
