Wink Re: Second Reoccurance

It is true that oncologists and surgeons think differently. There personal experiences with others in your situation could also be the reason they have different opinions. Also remember the surgeon actually saw the diseased tissue, but the oncologist read the pathology report written by a pathologist who examined the tissue.
I would see if I can get a second oncology opinion if I were you since the surgery is done and you are ready for the next step, which would be more in the area of treating your body to try to prevent more problems.
Good luck with the rash. Take good care of yourself.
