Good grieg--how frustrating! Tell both the doctors about the difference in opinion. Do a lot of reading and research on your own. There is SO much info out there in cyberspace. Get a third opinion. This is YOUR life; YOUR body. Don't be meek. I know you are confused and scared--but knowledge is power. Good luck--you will eventually find an answer you will be comfortable with!

 Thank you for your input, the more I read the more confusing it gets.  Supposely my cancer is gone four years ago I had a three hole pull thru, the first two years after were fine then my health started going down hill. My surgeon and oncologist assured me thru pet scans and cat scans that I was cancer clean.  Loss of wight 60lbs from 185 to 125, no energy.  Went to Cleveland Clinic and was told that I was adrenal insufficent being treated at the moment.  Went for check up to the oncologist who disagreed.  Have been to several doctors (Boston- Brigham Women's- Dana Faber) Springfield, Ma.  and now Cleveland Clinic.  Very fustrated and worn down.  Believe me will keep lookingl.
