I saw Dr. Thambi to receive a second opinion. He was very thorough, answered all of my questions, including my main ones: 1) does he agree with the prescribed treatment plan and is the cancer metastatic? He told me he agreed with the treatment plan, and offered to have the PSMA scan reviewed by the tumor board.
