I am not impressed with the "best doc" in town. Your friend was complaining of symptoms 2 months after treatment and it took a month and some begging to be seen? I also find it hard to believe all of these mets popped up just recently. Don't get me wrong, I love my health professionals- but they are not immune to screwing up. IMO a second opinion is mandatory! Tell her I said so-LOL!
Anyway, I am a stubborn woman too and part of this disease is learning how to ask and accept help. I still give my hubby the evil eye if he shows up at my infusions! And it is a must to stick up for yourself (or your friend) when it comes to treatment!
I wish you both the best of luck and am so sorry your friend got this news. ((HUGS))
