Oncologist in Florida

Mom is at Dr. Koletsky's office right now. The Dr. just called me to update me on their discussion. Basically, he will order a bone scan and an additional PET scan (if insurance will pay for it) and reveiw them with a radio-therapist and create a treatment plan by next week. Treatments will also start next week (he goes on vacation the following week.)

He reiterated the two areas of concern were the tumor in the lung as well as the hip area.

He suggested that the treatment would most likely be radiation with a mild dose of chemo, but the additional tests and consultation will dictate the exact plan.
