I am saddened to read your last posts. You need a little time to absorb things. But don't wait to long. Bonnie R and Kate had a good suggestions. If possible take someone with you when you go in to talk with your onc face to face with your list of questions. Another set of ears has been so helpful for me.
Remember it is like a puzzle and you need someone who is going to find the right piece. That piece (treatment) will stop the progression.
You are in my prayers. The twins are beautiful and growing! I wish we were closer.
