Hi Joanne

I dont know where you are located or your specific situation but I think it will help if you get a second opinion. I am really worried that they are offering this to you as a first line of treatment. I wonder what in your specific case prompted them to do this.

Dana Farber in Boston is setup to provide second opinions. Please go to their website and DFCI.org and you can see the process laid out. I suggest you atleast get a second opinion if possible by phone from Dr. Karen Anderson at Dana Farber. Her number is 617-632-3495. Best of luck
