Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!)

Well, I just got off the phone with him, and now he's thinking he might call Sloan for another opinion, just because. I told him to go for it. Honestly, though, he lives SO close to NY, in a very well-off area... I know these aren't true indicators of the quality of medical care, but I'm pretty confident that his doctors are good for what he needs. And you're right - it's almost funny that we can talk about "standard" cancer treatment as opposed to thinking it's all rare and untreatable, but his IS standard, even if his doctor calls it "incurative".

Thanks again. When it's so close to home, it's hard to keep it in perspective, that it isn't an automatic death sentence. I needed that.
