Debbie,

There are many confusing options, no doubt about that, and the medical articles are difficult to navigate. We find it helpful to ask the doctors to explain why they chose a particular treatment in my specific case. Sometimes they don't think to explain that without being asked but they are good about responding to our questions.

Hope all goes well with Mike as you move forward. i know this is a stressful time for you both.

Karen
