Hi, my husband on Aug 12th had a RC with lymph node dissection of 20 nodes, 3 were positive. He just started his chemo this week with today being day 2. Pat is very knowledgable about BC and she usually has great insight. We have no idea where your sister is and I agree having a great and I do mean well informed cancer team to do whatever needs to be done for your sister is important. I am thinking that 3 months does seem a bit long but then again, not sure what protocol they are using. Pat is an excellent resource for whatever you need. We are fortunate that the city we live in is very good with medical care and especially for cancer. Our city is one of two places in the United States that has the Calypso Prostate Cancer radiation therapy unit, the other one is at Memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC. So we are pretty progressive for a smaller community. I wish your sister well.
