You all seem so brave & together. When did you get your second opinion?
After Ultrasound & b/4 biopsy? Thanks.

hi sammi, in Scotland we don't get second opinions. We just go with what the specialist tells us. Ithink we just put our trust in them.

I got a second opinon after the biopsy and ended up going with the second opinion person. I felt the hospital was better known and she was a specialist in Breast Cancer versus the general surgeon at a local Breast Center. Still I think it was a toss up as the local hospital was better about keeping me informed then the teaching hospital.
