Please let me know what you think i should do next

You have seen my previous post now I want to dedicate this one to options and leave the bitterness of the other one:

-lymph node in breast area (2.3*1.3)
-4 supraclav nodes in right
-1 or 2 supraclav in nodes left

they suggest either systemic treatment or at the mo I am booked to the radiotherapy for a huge amount of treatment on the right only and the breast node...


I have seem treatment to lymph node by injecting ethanol they do it at the Mayo, and appearantly somehwere in norway.. (don't have the money I guess for mayo) anyone knows of any tother interventional radiology places doing that sort of thing? seem logical to me http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/707412


Anyhow please come forward with treatment options
Many thanks
