Re: Cyberkife or proton therapy on a lymph node?

Thanks Cathy,
The latest decision now seems to be to do cryosurgery. Maybe because of the previous failed radiation. I am not totally sure but I understand the freezing type removal can be repeated if it does not completely remove the node the first try.
At least this is available locally and she will not have to travel a distance to receive the treatment. The proton machines are expensive and not available everywhere. They are getting a new one at her local treating facility that will be available in early 2015.
Thanks again,
Ev
