Hi Cherise,

Nobody in 3 generations, I'm slim and fit, no diabetes , no sugar, no nothing!

I'm copying and pasting from another Facebook post I wtote to explain what is happening with me, hope I don't bore you;). My fingers are tired of typing.
Meeting with oncologist(s) today was... Fun! Turns out a friend Tom Wynne was at the oncology center waiting for me. Another, Tom Johnson was the doc I was scheduled to see. Both have done numerous DD RT with much success. If you are a Kaiser patient I can not recommend this group in Portland enough.

They spent a great deal of time putting me at ease, allowing me to go through the list of questions I pulled off DART this morning.

My case was much simpler than most as my DD appeared just a week ago and I received a quick referral from my hand surgeon as this was most likely caused by my trigger finger and carpal tunnel surgery nine weeks ago. Kaiser got me in in for a consult within a week. After discussing all my questions, I opted for RT. there seemed to be no downside in my case. He marked the area, then made a cast like impression of my hand which took about 10 minutes. I'm set for my first RT on Thursday August 27, I will then go Friday, and the following Monday through Friday for a total of 7 sessions.

I asked if they would also check my feet as I was so scared and paranoid as DD came on so suddenly. I can't say how kind and accommodating they were to me.

I'm not sure if this is where I should post costs and fees, but if someone will let me know I'll gladly do so.
