I found out I have cancer

[WODIN]

1. Collect all of your medical records and x-rays immediately. You are going to need copies of them when you visit a new physician and you don't want the delays of having individual doctors/hospitals sending them to each other.

2. Find one (1) primary care physician who is a specialist in this type of cancer and work with him to come to understand your options. Don't run from doctor to doctor. Work with one (1) and have HIM set you up for second oppinions if you need them - refering the results of the second oppinions back to him.

3. Be aggresive... there are usually a lot of options for this that you are unaware of... and the first doctor you visit is unaware of.

4. Educate yourself as much as possible... specifically about cancer and this type of cancer.

This is the best advice you can get. Good luck poyeboy, my wife had cancer it was a very tough tiime but she came through it alright. You have to be very agressive with the docs. Get busy!

If you're serious, I wish you well, but there is no such part of the body as "the fist".

A fist is a position you put your hand in.

Plus, I doubt your general medicine physician could diagnose cancer based on an in-office x-ray, without consulting a cancer specialist.

Re: Re: I found out I have cancer

ALL THAT IN JUST ONE QUICK VISIT TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE WITH NO TESTS OR BIOPSIES. HMMMM, YOUR DOCTOR MUST BE A CLAIRVOYANT.



KAYNE

I'm with KAYNE on this one...I know many people that got cancer and they all had to have biopsies. Even when it's breast cancer and they can clearly see it in an xray they still do a biopsy.

cancer of the fist? Never heard of it. I hope this isn't some joke. If it isn't, best of luck to you. I lost a friend to cancer a few years back. He wasn't even 25 yet.

sorry to hear this. that's really shitty news. i can't add anything more valuable than sofageorge's advice, but i wish you good luck and i hope that if it really is cancer, it doesn't spread and you keep full use of your hand. and i agree, "cancer of the fist" does not sound very professional.

KAYNE is very correct. Make sure you get a second and third opinion.

Dude....I would come clean before you become hated for this. Unless that's something you want or don't care about.

If this is true, than I wish you the best! If not than eat shit and die!!
