I am sorry you are still having problems. The whole thing is so frustrating !!
Can several of the docs involved have a phone conference and express their reasons for their choices to each other? If you can listen in that would be great.
Otherwise does the place where you go for treatment have a tumor board where a group of specialists discuss cases?
I will pray and cross my fingers for you.
Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Hang in there. Keep advocating for yourself. Try to stay positive.
