Guest guest Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 Joe, can anything (radiation, excision) be done about your peri- rectal recurrence if it begins to bother you? I'm thinking similar thoughts about my upper body sites--under jaw, ribs, on splenic artery. I don't want to be carved up, but if something minimally invasive could be done if and when something troublea me, I'd consider it.

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 I'll let you know sometime in the near future. I'm going to see my oncologist on Tuesday, and I'm going to ask him to refer me to the stereotactic radiosurgery place in Rochester, about 3 hours from here, to get evaluated for exactly that. Am going to shoot to get there in a month or so - we just bought a house and I want to concentrate on moving. When I go, I will ask specifically about if such can be done in other places.
