What we know now:
Dad has been loosing weight so some tests have revealed he does have emphysema The doctor wants to do a biopsy to determine what type of lung cancer he may have.
What we do not know:
When the biopsy will be. It again raises the issue that he is taking Aggrenox and the doctor wants him off it for a week before and after. His primary care physician would not allow this for the last proposal a couple of years ago now. Circumstances have changed so maybe this one will get worked out between the doctors.
Once they find out what kind of cancer it is, the treatment options will be discussed.
We'll keep you posted as we take a new turn on this journey.
