Hi Tonya,

I think what you need to do is get your mastectomy tissue from hospital 1 and bring it to UCSF to have UCSF re-test. When I was first diagnosed, I started at Cal. Pacific and switched to UCSF. My UCSF oncologist wanted to double check the receptor status. So I called the pathology department at Cal. Pacific and had them messenger the slides from my biopsy to UCSF. The UCSF pathologists then reviewed the slides. I think you should be able to retrieve your mastetomy tissue. It is yours after all. Now that I know how disorganized UCSF is, I might recommend that you pick up the tissue yourself and walk it over to UCSF. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best,


Jill
