Lily, I agree with the previous posts that call for a second opinion. You deserve nothing less than complete confidence in your onc. and in return he should be respectful of you and your questions. I go to the cancer institute near me and I am sure that if I spoke another language and was having communication problems, they would go out of their way to find someone to translate or help me. If they can't do that for you, you need to bring a friend who can. Good luck to you and I enjoy your posts. You sound like a very sweet person.
